My 2004 TJ has been throwing a code (Don't have the exact code at them moment) that indicates an O2 sensor issue or exhaust flow issue(? I think) for a while. Local mechanic wants to replace the cat converter.

A buddy's 05 TJ just started throwing a code (again, don't have the code) also indicating an O2 sensor issue. He took his to the dealership and they gave him a PCM update that took care of the code, and he seems to think, made the Jeep run smoother. The update supposedly addressed a fuel/air mix mishandling issue.

QUESTION: Is there a way I can try the PCM update myself? My vehicle has been "banned" from the network of dealerships (that's what the local dealership told me before I bought it anyway... Jeep had been totaled). Can I get access to the firmware update and equipment to do this on my own?

Thanks in advance.

Update, couldn't figure out how to edit the OP... the code for my buddy's 05 that prompted the PCM update was: P2096.

I had that and another issue fixed on my 05 with a reflash of the PCM. There is a few TSB's and a Recall for emmissions for the 2005 model.
