Back from dealer, reflash?
I had my car in for warranty work (vc gaskets, motor and trans mounts) and now I can foot brake it to 2200 rpms and launch and barely get a squeek from the tires. Do you think they reflashed from the dealer for some reason? I mean I love it in the sense that the "traction control works great" now, but I don't know if it is that or they flashed it back to stock which took out some power.

Back in 06 Mercedes a getting ready to roll out the new E63, but they had a problem.
The problem required all E55K to be detuned so that the newer 63 could be as fast.

I think you got the dreaded flash, it is like some members can't smoke their tires, same thing.
