OK, just an update.  The computer came in today and it had been opened, the shrink seal on it was torn up and it was the wrong one.  Our computer listed some crazy thing that lookied like it was off of a Ford or something....    Angry
So... after talking to Chris some more I think we figured out that we are calling Shenanigans on the dealership and sending him somewhere to have them check out the computer and see if they actually took care of the TSB and reflashed his computer like they said they did.  I find it interesting that they didn't put it on an invoice for them so I am calling BS!

We will keep you updated on the status of everything.

Nykon... I'm sure you have seen the ditsy blonde in the service department @ ron tonkin.   She is my ex.  Did I mention she is ditsy?  And blonde?

She said they did nothing to my ECM because no updates were available.




I find that hard to believe,  I think I am the 4th owner of the car including the Towyard that auctioned it off.


I believe the first owner was ignorant/misinformed because the car was collapsed on itself due to lower ball joint failure at Speed's towing. (2nd owner)
The 3rd owner bought it from the towyard and fixed the bare neccesity of things to bring it off the ground and get it driving again (I had to get the lower ball joints replaced under recall)

I don't think the first owner knew about the recall on the balljoints, or they would not have donated it / abandoned it.  If they did not know about a recall, they certainly didn't know about a TSB.


See what I'm saying?   will post tommorow when I pull the ECM to see if it has those stickers its supposed to have.  (doubtful)

That right there proves that they lied to you.  First they told you they did it and then they told you that they didn't.  I would go to Timberline.  Ron Tonkin pisses me off.  Angry

Got my flash at town & country chrysler/jeep today.  They said it had not been done.


My EGR monitor that was being a little pain has already come back on, after I run it some miles we will see if this was my fix.

What??? You mean another dealership did it for you??  But Tonkin said...
Tonkin is pissing me off.  I may need to borrow that Shotguy DT (can I call you DT?)  They told him that as soon as he disconnected his battery that it would wipe out the flash update.  Retards.  I have had nothing but bad luck from them.

Richard I read @ the DEQ website you only have to have 5/8 of those monitors working, so the two that were flashing when we hooked my code reader to your car are no big deal as far as passing DEQ is concered.

I have had 4/8 monitors functioning on a couple tries @ the DEQ... one more woulda done it LOL

How many freakin miles do I need to drive for these to come back on, or are they just not gonna come back on...?

It seems like it drives better so the update did something, but my EGR monitor is the only one that has come back on.

I freakin need ONE MORE to come on for it to pass DEQ.

Drive in town, on the freeway, in town some more, on the freeway some more, usually they say you have to drive it for about a week for everything to be on, I would say just drive it a lot in a few different conditions.

good luck
oh yeah, your injectors are in so come see me tomorrow.
