Flash: 6.4L Powertrain Diagnostic And System Enhancements This bulletin involves reprogramming the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with the latest available software. NOTE: This bulletin fixes all vehicles listed and also contains an optional software path for situations where the customer is specifically complaining of a Drone Noise, Shudder, Pulsation, or Vibration under light throttle applications while vehicle is operating in MDS/ECO mode (optional software available for D2 & DJ vehicles). There will be two separate software options displayed on the wiTECH flash tab. The software file released for this condition contains the verbiage OPTIONAL. The other file is the standard software that does not contain improvements for the Drone/Shudder concern. If for some reason the customer finds this shudder improvement objectionable, the PCM software may be returned/reflashed to the standard version. Both software versions will address the remaining conditions noted in the bulletin. A small number of customers may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination. Upon further investigation the technician may find the following Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC): ? P0456 - Evap System Small Leak. ? P3402 - Cylinder 1 Deactivation Control Performance. ?
