Default How often do you flash???

No Im not talking about flashing your old fella

Im talking about those with flash tuner boxes, how often do you reload your tune from the box?

I was told by my tuner that I would need to reflash my ecu with the flash tuner every month or 2 as the ecu still has tenancies to want to revert back to its oem programming.

One thing I do notice is that when I do 'reflash' my ecu, the car seems to be brought back to life so to speak, like its been freshly tuned.

So do you reflash your ecu often? Have you not bothered?
