I'm going in tomorrow for the new flash. The guy at the counter was saying it's pretty big and was taking a while to download it to the module used to flash them. He wasn't the tech, so not sure if it's true or not, but they seemed like pretty decent guys. It's closer to work than the place I bought it from, and their customer service seems better too
This is from revision A of 18-033-07 but the other one for the cab&chassis says the same thing.
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The vehicle operator and/or technician may experience one or more of the following
conditions and/or enhancements:
1. The technician may not be able to reprogram (flash) the PCM with new
application software.
2. ** The vehicle may fail an Emission Inspection Maintenance (I/M) Test because two or
more On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) monitors report that they are not ready for testing.
This condition may cause the customer vehicle to not pass an Emissions I/M test. The
following is a list of OBD Monitors that may report as not ready for testing:
a. Non-Methane Hydrocarbon (NMHC) Catalyst Monitor.
b. Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) Absorber Monitor.
c. Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Monitor.
d. Electrical Charging System Monitor.
e. EGR System Monitor.
f. Oxygen Sensor Monitor. **
3. ** After extensive idling of the vehicle engine or if an intake air leak is present, the
vehicle operator may experience a MIL illumination and/or an Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) message alert due to one or more of the following DTC's:
a. P1451 - Diesel Particulate Filter System Performance.
b. P2463 - Diesel Particulate Filter - Soot Accumulation.
c. P242F - Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction - Ash Accumulation. **
4. The vehicle operator may experience a MIL illumination due to one of the following
DTC's:
a. ** P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance. **
b. P242B - Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit Performance - Bank 1 Sensor 3.
c. P245A - EGR Cooler Bypass Control Circuit - Open.
5. An intermittent rough engine idle and/or white smoke following initial engine start.
6. A throttle tip-in stumble at engine speeds of 1,300 to 2,100 rpm.
7. An engine hesitation at altitude of 5,000 feet between engine speeds of 1,200 to 1,600
rpm.
8. A turbocharger “chuff-like” sound during rapid deceleration.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Connect the StarSCAN® to the vehicle Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC).
2. From the “Home” menu, select:
a. “ECU View”.
b. “PCM Powertrain Control Module”.
c. “View DTC's”.
3. Record DTC's that are present in the PCM.
4. Are any of the following DTC's present: P1451, P2463, or P242F?
a. If YES >>> then Section C - Exhaust System Aftertreatment Regeneration must be
performed AFTER Sections A and B (reprogramming the PCM for bootloader and
application software) of the Repair Procedure have been completed. Read the
following Cautions and Notes, then proceed to Section A of the Repair Procedure.
b. If NO >>> then Section C - Exhaust System Aftertreatment Regeneration should
NOT be performed. Read the following Cautions and Notes, then proceed to
Section A of the Repair Procedure.
CAUTION: Before the application software can be reprogrammed (flashed) into the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the PCM must first be reprogrammed
(flashed) with “bootloader” software. Failure to reprogram the PCM with
the “bootloader” software first, may cause the process of reprogramming
the PCM with the application software to fail. The PCM “bootloader”
software special flash procedures must be followed closely to prevent
damage to the PCM.

Not With Bully Dog Anymore
I know you have to get that flash for the new bully dog chip and it only takes about a 1/2 hour to do. I just got it yesterday.
my dealer was having trouble with their star-scan. it makes them download the update each time (instead of saving it) and that was taking them ~ 2 hours.
The TSB does allot for a few hours, so you must have been lucky. They weren't able to flash mine the other day because of the star-scan unit, so hopefully later this week or next.
I Bought the bully dog power pup for the 6.7 and nothing but problems!
