I would like to get the TCM Flash for my car but have called 2 local dealers and the had no clue what I was talking about! One of the service writers didnt have a clue what a SRT8 Jeep was! Can someone point me in the right direction here. Thanks

They just changed ownership and are now Urban Chrysler.
I was hoping for an improvement over the last crowd.

Mike Rollins (he is the head mechanic)at Tuttle-Click Jeep is very helpful.

I have been taking to him about the TCM flash for awhile know and I keep checking back with him to see if I can get it yet.

I spoke to him a couple of days ago.

Had my TCM TSB at Urban Jeep in Foothill Ranch today.
Pete Joros the service guy (although a little clueless) was very nice and took care of me.
They did the TSB no questions asked, found a small leak from the water pump and ordered me a new one.
Driving back the short distance from the dealer I didn't get a chance to red line it but shifts felt positive and it seemed to kick down well.

Limeylee, is your auto up shift working fine? or do you need to take it back like some of the others.

seems to be working fine.
I have only tested it once, accelerating moderately to red line in first and it shifted up no problem.
In my opinion this TSB does not do anything for the downshifting issues some of us have, mine sometimes still doesn't kick down if you punch it from around 30, unless you REALLY stand on it.

Start using manual down shifts and watch the difference when it adapts to your style.

I had mine programmed at Don-A-Vee Jeep in Placentia at Orangethorpe and 57 freeway.
