wease,
Are you experiencing any symptoms or did the dealer just recommend it to you? I hear a bad flex disc will cause drive train vibration and the occasional "thunk" noise when coming to a stop during the 2-1 shift. I'm experiencing the latter and suspect it's the flex discs, but I haven't visually looked at the condition yet.

I have not hear any thunk or a vibration as of yet, the dealer inform me that it is wearing out and have like 10k left on it.
