Default Took 07 SS for warranty repairs..DOD update and more

I took my car in for a vibration from the front when cold and found out that the LF tire when road force balanced showed 35 lbs of force, you could actually see a flat spot in the tire as it went to spin up. They ordered me a new tire, but due to the Goodyear strike that happened the tire is back ordered for a week.

Remote Start Issue fixed with outside temp display...posted the fix in other Thread I opened before.

My buddy that works at the dealership put all the updates for different modules on it (car has 20 of them), there was an update for DOD Engine Performance Characteristics. I noticed when I took it home it seems to want to stay in 4 cycl when crusing, wonder if this was our reason that no one could get 28 mpg. I am cursious to see what this does with gas mileage. Going from VA to PA I got about 26mpg (before update) One tank of gas to go 420 miles (total trip), 8 hours of driving.
