Mine goes in tomorrow. Had nearly dead battery this A.M. and couldn't even start the car. It started and ran fine last night. Not DBS, but this is still my original delco.
They said they can download the flash for me.
Plus I still gotta do the roof.
And the rocking seat.
And the differential chatter...

I had the flash done this week on my 2005 MN6. I gave the service writer the PI info from here and they didn't argue about it. I'll give an update after a couple months or earlier if I have a DBS with the new program.

They said that they load tested it, and it came out fine.
How should I press them for a new battery?

Your tune is in the ECU, the reflash concerns the BCM.
