TSB 18-037-04; Fuel economy, white smoke
The reflash number above is to address white smoke, fuel economy (additional 1 mpg), and better accuracy of overhead MPG read out on 2004.5 / 2005 dodge trucks. I do not know if my 2004.5 truck has this already but I do know that the overhead read out is pretty far off therefore i am assuming I do not have this re-flash. I do have the "lovely" reverse honk / horn issue.
My truck has 150K miles, dealer states to perform this is $100 and that he can not tell me what level flash I have until they do the 1 hour of service at $100 per hour.
Is that true that a reflash outside of warranty is an hour of work? Can I get this done from someone other than a dealer?
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
Thanks
