AWC Reflash?

bossssman38 · Oct 12, 2009, 07:44 PM

So I went into the dealer today to get my fuel line recall thing and when I looked at the service ticket afterwards it said under job #2 "AWC Reflash." Just wondering if anyone knew what this had to do with. Thanks. I tried searching but nothing came up..

Some of us had to convince/beg the dealer to do it for us, so I guess you got lucky and they did it automatically

Thank you so much!!! Haha yeah my dealer isn't too bad I'm glad they did it for me. But I'm going to be 2 days away from my baby I got rear-ended the other day : (

Which dealer is this on LI?

Cause the one in queens was being pretty pissy about doing the awc.

Well I go to 112 Mitsubishi here in Long Island.

I go to island Mitsubishi in lindenhurst. Service guy at desk is good but mechanics aren't the brightest. And expect them to drive your car around...

Picked up my car yesterday and it had 3 more miles on it and 12mpg... But can't complain about it everyone does it.

My favorite is when i had mine in valet in Baltimore and it came back to me in sport mode and my e-brake was noticeably more loose.

Did you have it done there? I'm debating to get it done here at school or wait to go back to 112

Got it done last Friday, seems to shift (engage) smoother from a start take off for sure.
This biggest is difference being from a stop, off the brake to the gas and not being that ever so slightly jerky..... all gone now

Yeah and i just dropped my car off this morning at a body shop. Got rear ended the other day and bumper needs to be repainted. I'm hoping tey don't try to take it for a spin lol. And I'm hoping they realize they have to lift the metal on the shift knob to get it out of gear. It's the litle things that I gotta worry about haha
