An aftermarket tuner is the only thing that's gonna get rid of it. You can reflash from the dealer 'till your blue in the face, it ain't going away.

If you know you can go over 99 mph do not get a reflash. I had my truck over 110 on a trip to Oregon and did not even think anything of it until I was getting told by people on this board that I was a liar because the speed limiter was 99 mph. How can that be???? I WAS going over 110! Well low and behold when I took my truck in for service and they reflashed it and guess what. No power at 99 mph on the dot. Crapola.

HA! That's funny. One of the lucky few w/o the gov and look what happens...

I'm surprised Tuff's is topping 100. But that could be the talkin.

TUFF FORD,

I am with you on that, my truck was built March 16, 2004 and it seen 110+ twice......
Funny thing is I had it reflashed at 2,000 miles and the governer still never shuts it down... now at 5,000. Just this past weekend I wanted to find out were the shutdown point was... but after having the needle pegged out it never shutdown....?

Next time I'll take a pic of the speed meter to show the non-believers...

-F2F-
