Help me figure out flash version from paperwork

Hi. I'm looking over the paperwork after I took my car in for first oil change. They also replaced the battery and plugs, free. Now I'm looking at the numbers behind "PCM REFLASH" and trying to figure out what version they did. It says XX682XRX .3
I searched this board for the definitions but didn't find them -- maybe I missed them. Any help appreciaed. Thanks.

That might be a dealer specific code... when I had my done last week they used the flash P/N from the TSB, but on my previous flashes they used some generic non-mazda code for "misc labor". As long as they updated their WDS in the last couple months, you had to have received the 'N' calibration.

Funny thing is I never complained about starting, my 8 starts quickly, always has. They seem to be very willing to do my flash and even offered a rental car.

G8rboy, you're probably right about it being dealer-specific. I'm assuming I have the N flash now.

expo1, I hadn't noticed any weakness in the battery, though I'm glad they changed that and the plugs because it seemed to crank a little longer before start. I'm very pleased with the initiative Mazda is showing.
