Thanks for the feedback. What did you tell the service rep to do? I got the "let us take care of everything" attitude last visit and nothing was fixed. I'll take the TSB and software part # you mention and see what happens. I have a feeling I'm going to have a fight on my hands and that will be sad. According to them, the software is up to date. Has anyone out there seen documentation on the improved behavior of the AC after the software update? Even with two sources from this forum, I won't have a strong arguing point and I like to go in with indisputable evidence.

quitepro all you should do is tel them with tsb in hand that your car has lousy ac performace at startup and that this latest software flash fixes the issue so that your ac can be like mine and the other guy that had it done. the dealership just wants to make sure you have the issue before they can fix it as usual and i find that if i said i have an issue and come in there armed with information they are usual impressed with my research and are more than happy to do what i tell them, i have never been challenged with an issue except for my brake problem which is something i probably did myself, severe warping during braking above 100 miles per hour, but how oftern do i go above 100, lol. let me know if i can help!

Next visit will be with the TSB. Last visit I "trusted" them and got typical service. I take it as a lesson learned...that if I ever want warranty service done I'll need to be fully armed with the information.
They claim to have checked my car and that the latest software was installed. Unfortunately, I have no specifics so I can't be sure they are AWARE of the latest software (like the TSB mentions).
Thanks again for the feedback. These forums rock!
