2016 OVTune Tacoma 3.5L Manual Transmission / Engine ECU Reflash

To use the hardware from the Tune, in TechStream, at the top of the program, you should see "Setup". Select that and go to "VIM Select". Change interface to "OpenPort 2.0 J2534".

Once you "connect to vehicle" then do the following below.

I'm writing this from memory. Once you connect to the vehicle, select engine and then data list. You should be able to customize a list and start logging.

 

next round of file updates out to the loggers who sent in today thanks guys great data!

it would be very helpful if the email includes:
ECU version
Octane tuned on
issues experienced (if any)

 

As soon as I get tech stream up and running I’ll get some logs to you.. not sure if I got some bad fuel or something else is going on with mine...

 

Auto guys are lazy

 

For anybody curious, I discovered that you can still allow Windows Defender to run and build an exception for PCMFlash. I had previously reported that I had done this and it didnt work, but I tried again and it worked for me this time around. I went ahead and made the exception for everything in the folder that I have for my maps and drivers and software, so more than just PCMFlash is protected

 

Windows Defender is crap. Better to leave it disabled.

 

My laptop is crap, so it doesnt matter what I do with it.

 

@OVTune You must have missed mine or were waiting for info on my ECU version

 

This, I have an old win7 laptop with the win10 upgrade that is dedicated to tune only use.

 

Yeah I haven’t gotten a test tune either.

 

Hey guys could someone help with TS !

setting up the logger/ to set up the list, how is this done ?

I can long in To TC no problems, but i can't select Snapshot Config

running the 103.c 91

04B12

Does some have the 103.b for this ECU ?

 

I have it.

 

You need to be connected to your truck to set up the list,I will send you an invite to the discussion. I believe I still have the 103.b file for the 04B12

 

Mine is just old as hell, so...lol

 

I also did not get one, but I didn't expect one either since my log wasn't including any issues.

 

I forgot to add any issues to my email, I have the same intermittent stumble,flatspot,hickup or whatever you want to call it in low rpms,speed,gears.
It really is very intermittent and doesn't happen often but it's frustrating as hell when it does it. Seems like fuel,spark just shut of for a split second and then catches up. I think it only happened two or three times in all the time I spent logging yesterday.

 

Thanks for the PM that will Help.

I have not tired the 103.b , but you guys that have , what do you prefer ?

 

Personally, 1.03C. 1.03B is excellent, don't get me wrong. But I felt that the throttle was a little too much of a hair trigger and so I really appreciated Mat releasing C for us. Yeah, yeah, a lot of people as a result say that we don't know how to drive if we prefer C (mostly Auto trans guys), but they're not driving my truck.

 

I prefer 1.03B. The RPM doesn't jump when idling w/ the AC on like it does on 1.03C. Plus I like the throttle response and feel of it vs 1.03C.

 

Working on a test file now 1.03c00...0001 and with ~100 miles it's pretty good. A hand full of us are helping Matt get some MT quirks worked out and this test file seems pretty good. I'm going to stay with it for at least 500 miles and while in my Moab trip coming up this week.
