As you stated, you didn't keep quiet when you should have.

It's your call as to whether you drop you car off with a service manager who is obviously working hard to earn your business, but has now has his mind polluted to some degree by the starscan "expert".

I would only do it on condition that once he felt he his ducks in a row and knew what he planned to do he call and reveal his gameplan before you make the final go - no go decision. And that, if you decide against it - can't really think of a good reason you should (decide against it) - for any reason that the rental car is still covered by the dealer.

Also, if you have a superchips tuner make it absolutely clear that the tech is not to flash your PCM under any circumstances, only the TCM.

Here's my advice for how to proceed with the next dealership, if you end up going that route: Getting the flash done: Review this thread starting with post #115 or so. Pay close attention to what Nightshade says, and the approach he used with his dealer to great effect (post #123). Do something similar and it should work for you: Just Got Tcm Flashed - Page 3 - LX Forums

As a backup, have the TSB numbers for both SRT8 TSB flashes (which are legitimate 3.5 and 5.7 flashes as well). Those are TSB 18-031-05 and TSB 21-020-06.
