m ,l, k flashes are what mazda is doing to there rx8 to make them work better. This includes flooding issues and gas mileage i know if you have the l or m flashes your oil guage needle will move just turn your key ignition to on and tap your brake about 15 times if you see it move bingo! you got l or m iam NOT pretty sure it will not work if you have the k flash anyways these things been talk about alot just go to the top were is says search type in what your looking for and you will get a list because people here can be realllll asses and WELCOME TO THE CLUB!!!

Welcome! You know, you already got told "do a search" in another thread... that advice applies to more than just one question!

In the Tech Garage forum section (Mazda dealer ECU flashes are hardly aftermarket, now are they?), there is a sticky thread called ECU/PCM "M-flash" Info/questions that answers all your questions. It's the second sticky thread at the top of that forum section, kind of hard to miss (even without doing a search).

Regards,
Gordon

PS - we don't mind if you use complete words when you post. Really, we don't! :D

Assuming nothing else changes, you'll have the latest "M" flash. If they release new flashes, you'll have them... whatever is current, they put on the production cars. So, you don't really need to worry about it until you get yours. It's not until AFTER you get your '8 that you need to worry.
