there is a software upgrade that would be done with the Tech II. This would drive the dealer cost up. The 99 9-5 2.3LPTs cannot have the software upgraded for the DIC for some reason. Parhaps your dealer has a single flat rate for the DIC replacement that includes a charge for the software upgrade. Maybe you can educate them about that. Get your own and do the five minute job. Replace the plugs while your at it. Best of luck!
