BS or serious?

bs

shit i bought my car used... how do you ask for flash updates... btw i know this one is bs

never heard of it

hmmm maybe i shodl start a rumor about flashes ...hehe everyone else is.


next tiem yougo to the dealership ask for the "z" flash......made my 8 liek a rocket ship of exotic goodness. :p

oh and to get flashes you need ot knwo the secret hand shake TwitchFD...haha seriously though you can just ask for the latest update.

:(

I'm afraid it's true folks..

37.3 has a "P" flash

Huh? Now I'm really confused...

I thought we'd pretty much determined this was BS :confused:

I wonder what this one is suppose to do......

I remember the good ol' days of the J flash.....ohhh....memories.....

seriously....why people so quick to call it B.S.?

everybody is an expert on here....sheesh.

^yea i know...we all know there is only one expert.......ME.

so start a lien to get the "z" flash outside my door...and bring 5 dollars.


hahaha i kid i kid. I'm still rocking the M flash myself..,maybe i shoudl get off my duff and get a new flash :D

So...What is this flash supposed to do?

hmmm but i haven't trusted you on anything. lol

kidding..guess i'll call tomarrow an enquire about the new flash :D

Hey, Snap-on, is there a VIN range for this update?

Larry

My question is: what happened to "O" ?? :cool:

Geez... who can keep up with this stuff? :eek:
I thought O will come after N, not P...looks like I learned the alphabet wrong :)
Also, what the heck is 37.3? :confused:
snap-on, any info what's different with this new flash? (provided if it really exists)

This has got to be it... "P" stands for "power" :D

lol that would be nice. I would hope that would give around 210 to the wheels :D

Represent the version of WDS Calibration Level supplied by Mazda to their dealers.

Kind of like software version 1.0, 1.1, etc.

I have no clue why they skipped "O"

I checked a car today and the WDS took it to the N3Z2E(P)

I didn't have time today to compare the PID's on a "N" to the new flash.

This should explain the "what the heck is 37.3" question

Your killing me man...

I'm going by to talk to my little birdie on the way home

Maybe they skipped O because they don't want ppl to think it's a 0?

Either way, I can't begin to express how happy I'd be if this were even the 238hp flash - the 247hp flash? WOW!! :D

I agree on the skipping O thing because in the phone company we regularly skip O,and I because they look too much like zero's,and 1's.I guess I need to get to the dealer for the latest flash(I have M),and have them fix my taillights which have condensation behind the lens.

^hahaha tell me about it...wouldn't that be nice...i doubt it..but i can dream until i get it done :D

WDS is at 37.4 Patch 5 today, and my little birdie confirmed a NEW file was downloaded...

and what did your little birdie tell you the purpose of this flash was? :D

He is checking...

...............thank your little birdie for us

indeed..get your lill birdie a beer or two :D

Maybe your little birdie can save me a lot of time....I'm in for a 12 pack.

Hey mods..maybe this can be put in the "Tech" section?

Better yet - have him practice, by re-flashing my car! :D How late does he stay there?

Let's just say that "P" does not stand for power

Darin - answer your PM

you aren't going to share with the rest of us?

thats just mean :p

Even if he flashes the car he still has to log data with the old parameters and compare what they changed. :confused:

So its confirmed the p flash should be available? Please post differences in power after the reflash to p.

This sucks I just had my car into the dealers last week for the N flash and so they could fix my tail light. I dont know how happy they will be to see my car again for the P flash

so what did it change? or what issue did it try to resolve.

we'll know tomorrow or the next day what exactly its for but i can tell you its NOT power.

right now I'd settle for a slightly higher idle setting

PM answered.

i should be able to find out what it does tomorrow.
my car will be getting it done (assuming I can convince them to let me talk to my mechanic).

I would hold off and just get the "N" flash...

Already have the N flash...
hrmm.. maybe i'll just ask what it does..

Great idea :rolleyes:

thanks for popping the bubble :p
why can't it ever be for added power :confused:

Flashes revealed:

Q Flash- "Q"uieter, but needs more power
R Flash- "R"uns better, needs more power
S Flash- "S"moother, yet slow
..... Perhaps the Z Flash will be the one:

Z Flash- "Z"oom Zoom!

Or maybe not. Why do they tease me like this!

haha funny guy ^^^ hopefully P will do wonders... if not im not going in again for another flash!

Don't waste your time.. :confused:

I talked to my mechanic last night, and he said this is not for power. It has something to due with climate control. He told me to stay on M or N. Some dealers will go ahead and flash your car without you knowing what you are getting, so please ask about any PCM related issues when you go in for service. I'll know more today after he looks into it better.

Climate Control as in manual or automatic?

Threads like this remind me just how LOST I'd be without this site. Looking forward to you gurus finding out more.

I'll say this, though, Mazda sure seems to be going to great lengths to get the PCM programming right. This stuff ain't free.
