Going tomorrow morning for my (late, i'm close to 34) 32K appointment.
Everythings works fine & smooth, no transmission hesitation or hard shift or anything: should I ask for enforcing any TSB update?
My brain says yes, my butts (the thing closer to the Jeep!) say "if it work don't mess with it!!!!"

The only think I know is there's a sticker when i open the hood saying the ECU was flashed in Dec '05, can't read the number 'though.

What you think?

I don't think they'll do a TSB without you experiencing the problem. The idea of a TSB is a documented way to solve a common problem. It's not a recall that has to be done.

I would say no. By now you should have had a regular service of your transmission that replaces both the main sump and oil return filters as well as at least 9 quarts of fluid replaced, so you should be fine.

Great news to hear your good results. I was set to go in for another TSB for shuddering of the transmission, but it has disappeared now for over a week.

Well it end up fine with a $100 bill for oil & filter change, ouch!
Here's the history for my Jeep:
1) build date March 14 2005 (an old timer!!!!)
2) No Recall information
3) Service History
- Valve, EGR-2.7 liter diesel (funny they don't say 2.8 ) at 3000
- Hose, pump supply at 20000
- Valve, EGR-Valve, EGR Replace at 21000
- Module, anti-lock brake control at 22000
- Disc, (rotor) brake-rear-both at 25000
- Sending units/Sensors at 27500
4) I'm currently at 34,145miles 8)

I'm a bit puzzled by the last service item, wonder which sensors they are talking about...

I had tsbs done at recent 25k service. I had no issues with tranny slipping, etc. They did the tsb and I have noticed no real change, except that my fuel mileage has gone up about 2 mpg. My build date was 2/05 (another old guy) and I had egr at 10k, but that is all the "repairs" so far. So, leave well enough alone, or try for increased mpg? Can't tell you what to do, but that is my experience. Incidentally, they would not do the tsb until it was cleared via phone call to jeep central.
