Should i remove my tune to get some minor work done??

1. I am getting that clicking sound in my A/C vents fixed now that they figured out the problem.

2. Dent molding is coming loose on driver door.

3. My front right brake is squealing and bothers the **** out of me.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't need to plug it up, but i'll be so nervous while it's there...

What do y'all think?

Is the rattle in the right drivers vent? What is it so I can fix mine?

If you call service and tell them about it they will know. It's a huge problem on our trucks. I called 4months ago about it and they didn't have it figured out yet. Some engineer prolly figured out what was wrong.

I heard it from the right side vent. But actually comes out of most of the vents.

No need to bother removing tune. They are not going to go into the pcm looking for anything. Technically the only time they really start looking into if a tune has been done is if there is a fishy warranty failure. Smoked motor fried tranny, noise in engine etc.

If its simple just go ahead and remove it. better safe than sorry, if the guys are douches they will put in the computer system for future reference that it had "aftermarket ECM and TCM tuning" and will use it against you any chance they can
