Dealer will not be able to just reprogram certain modules.

They will diagnose the fault codes present and carry out any work needed.

If coding / programming is necessary the software will update all your modules if available which are not up to date and then recode the vehicle to reflect the changes.

This will take several hours depending on what modules you have in your car.
