Should I or Shouldn't I..................

Going to take the unit in my signature line below in to the dealer for some air conditioner work. This unit has never been reflashed, should I let them hit it with the latest while they have it or tell them to leave well enough alone?

1) If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

2) The new diagnostics available would REALLY have me scratching my head. In fact, I'm going to try to visit Cheezit this week to explore the possibility.

I know of an 03 F250 still running with the ORIGINAL factory flash at 420K miles. Never been in the shop except for a water pump replacement at the listed mileage. I wouldn't let them touch it if you have no issues.
