Acceleration Hesitation fix done!

Hi guys,
Just got the done the acceleration hesitation TSB at Nisaan Douglass of Huntington Beach. The assistant service manager Peter took care of my 2003, late version, SE. The engine now runs great, no sign of hesitation, engine makes a nice purr and the throttle responds quickly, immediate power.
I am very happy. The process took like 2 hours. They read ECM code, download the new software from the Nissan Server to a portable PC, wire the PC to the ECU and download again. 1st download takes 20 mins, second one about 1 hour. This must be a huge program!. Peter is a good guy I definitely recommend him. He seems pretty competent and understands quickly the problem. His service was outstanding.
Hope many of you guys do this service.

Have either of you experienced this 'loss of power' that some others have experienced? Or does the car just pull hard all the way now?

I didn't notice any loss of power nor any gain from it. All I know is that my car doesn't hesitate anymore when I accelerate from a complete stop. The only way to find out for sure is to dyno the car.
