What is your experience with Hill Start Assist?

indeed.


The only experiences i think belong in this thread are the Gen 3 Tacoma, maybe some anecdotes from other *Toyota* vehicles that have the Hill Start Assist Control (HAC) feature, but i dont see why we are comparing across manufacturers.

 

Fuck the manual, it's wrong

TRD OR DO NOT HAVE THE HILL ASSIST AT ALL

mystery solved


Can anyone refute this?

 

rofl, as I have said before ... have a nice day. Thank you for clearing up your poorly articulated post, and I hope you continue to do so in the future.

 

Trd OR with auto trans. Mine rolls back on any incline. Makes the same noise it does when crawl control is active.

 

I cannot refute this, but i wish the manual/brochure was clearer on this point.

 

So your ignorance, inability to understand what your vehicle is doing, and further inability to provide any shred of evidence to dispute what I'm saying is all the fault of my "poorly articulated post?" Nice evasion attempt.

I look forward to the day there's a pill to fix your kind of stupid.

 

Yup, this seems to be correct. Several OR owners have confirmed just now that their trucks do not behave the way Sports do.

 

I had this feature on a 94 subaru legacy with a 5 speed manual transmission and it would hold the car on any hill as long as you had the clutch pressed....I loved it

 

ad hominem fallacies do not change the facts of what has been laid out here. I implore you, please do not kick your dog later.

 

TRD OR 4x4 A/T here. Rolls back, makes bunch of terrible noises and flashes on the dash.

Can anyone confirm whether the TRD OR guys are supposed to have this or not?

 

Off-roads don't have it

 

My MT Sport has it and it works great. I like it.

 

First anything with hill assist. Didn't even know I had it until heard it mentioned and checked it out. I was killing the engine, maybe too fast on the clutch and the brakes were still holding. Changed my style and all is good.

Funny when folks "bitch" at each other on forums, adds to the entertainment value.

 

Actually that's incorrect. I just looked up the brochure. Hill Start Assist Control is on the TRD Off-Road for A/T only.

 

The brochure is wrong.

 

Can you show me proof please?

This is Toyota's official brochure for the 2017 models http://www.toyota.com/content/ebrochure/2017/tacoma_ebrochure.pdf

 

The proof is that there are no off-roads with hill start assist.

 

So Toyota is lying to everyone. Your proof seems legit.

 

I wouldn't use the word lying, but yes. It's an oversight on the brochure.
