Default Tire Flash

I am taking the rig in on Thursday morning to have them reflash the computer to work with the new tire size. They told me $15, it sounds quite reasonable. What is everyone else getting charged for flashes like this?

i didnt realize the dealership would do this.

im planning on putting some 285/65/20's on my stock 20' rims.so they can reflash the tire size to get the right speed reading?

Ok, that is what I thought. I was expecting more, but when he said 15 bucks, I was all over it. Booked in for Thursday morning when I have some time. I have read the 60 to 100 for a flash but thought maybe the tire flash was easier?


Yeah, they can flash to a new tire size so your odometer, speedo and everything all work proper. With the tire change, my MPG's have gone all to hell. I am hoping it is mostly do to improper calculations. LOL Good thing I didn't buy this truck for fuel economy.....
