How long does the update take to do? Can I walk in there and complain or do I need to make an appointment

Not long, but I'd make an appointment.

I just checked the service receipt they gave me, it doesn't say ITB12-027 on there, although the service tech told me it was the new bulletin that came out about a month ago. I'll post them up if someone wants them to take in their 09, but it doesn't say all that I hoped it would. PM me if you want them.

I made an appointment, decided to wait for the car, and did not have them wash the car. It took 90 minutes.

Washing the car can mean an extra 30-45 minutes, because they put it in a line to be washed.

And getting a loaner car adds time, because they put your car in the loaner car line to be worked on.

Can't believe you let anyone else wash your cars, I always insist they don't wash my G, water spots & swirls galore On a white G maybe, otherwise, NO WAY!

I know...but it was filthy and I detail my car myself every 3 mths anyways. So any swirls will be gone.

I simply played back my experiences Just got back 3 day 1500 miles drive and the trans performance is quick and smooth, no lag. The damn car is now running like a 330hp sedan should. I don't know which program the dealer flashed the car with, just what they told me that this is the newly released update. Don't take it from me, call your dealer.

You are mistaken. Those are complimentary whorls and happy polka dots especially made for Infiniti. The car wash bristles are behaving as designed.

It is available in Canada. I had mine updated at Guelph Infiniti Nissan a couple weeks ago.

Anyone went in to get the new TBS with a aftermarket exhaust? I went to do mine today and the dealer refused to do it because of my aftermarket exhaust :/.

What does 7AT has to do with exhaust??? Bring your business to another dealer.

I brought mine in with my aftermarket axle back exhaust, and my added-on 7AT paddle shifters, sub amp, daytime lites. (*see note below!!)

One of them commented that it sounds like an IPL and even started an IPL up to compare. I guess some dealers are cooler than others.

Important note: If you have any electrical mods, you SHOULD disconnect power to them. I pulled the fuse for my sub amp and my daytime lights. The TSB states that any electrical load can corrupt the reprogram process leading to a dead ECU/TCU. When I dropped the car off, I told my dealer that I disconnected these items so they would know all is safe, electrically stock. They seemed happy to hear this and did not express any concern.
