M flash

so ive read that the M flash is an upgrade for the pcm of the car..

but how do you go about getting it?

do you just ask the dealer for the upgrade or do you have to claim that there is some sort of problem with the car?

Someone hellp me out please cause my car is in the dealership right now getting some work done and i would like to get this done also.

I thought the last TBS said all cars should get this flash since it addresses cold shut downs (flooding).
