Just had a hesitation TSB applied to my car

The dealer replaced a MAF sensor and reprogrammed ECM. All I can say is WOW!!! I am very happy with it. The major notice is right off the line, no need to give it a lot of gas anymore. And another dfference that I noticed is when you downshift, it doesnt jerk as much, the RPMs raise a lot smoother. Thanks to all of you for posting that TSB.

My service writer said he didn't feel anything when he test drove the car, but he said that TSB did apply to my car and he was going to do it anyway. I guess they think that is the way Maximas should behave. After they replaced my MAF and reprogrammed ECU I took off for a spin and could tell a difference right away. I went back to the dealership and told him that it makes a whole lot of difference and I am pretty happy with it. He didn't object and said that I would know better, because I am used to the car so I could tell a difference in the way it drives

Too bad I don't live up there around you, cause there are no dealers around here with a service dept like yours.
