Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Lol when I saw it, I was also like wait didn't someone else just post that

 

Lol never disbelieved you sir

 

Here's a little snippit from the SM ref the low pressure fuel pump:



The days of a simple mechanical or even basic DC electric fuel pump are long gone lol.

 

I'm just here for the FM update announcement

 

Hardware inconsistencies? Like computing/control hardware or engine/transmission hardware?

 

Hardware being gears, synchronizers in the trans, mechanical connections, etc.

 

An old engineer used to tell me, no two machines are identical. You and your siblings came out of the same factory (your parents), neither are alike.

 

I have a 2016 and have had zero issues related to anything mentioned here and I run my truck every day. Just hit 30k. Running 87 tune and love it. Does anyone think these issues are more in the 2017 and/or 2018 models?

 

How many miles out of the 30K are with the 87 tune ? Have you put up a review on the review thread ?
Edit would you put up a review ?

 

Only had about 30 miles on the tune, did it yesterday. What I meant to say is I have never had any issues like this ever on the stock tune. The 87 tune feels awesome and my idle sits at 600-650 rpms

 

Here's to hoping I wake up to a nice little email from mat tomorrow involving the tune

 

I've noticed a few if these issues but only after I got the lift and bigger tires. The biggest issue is more on the transmission

 

What prompted you to get the tune?

 

For those looking for a cheap, functional tuning laptop... I picked up one of these yesterday (only $149 in store) and got everything set up on this this morning. More than adequate to run flashes and TechStream - took me about 45 mins to get everything loaded (drivers, PCM flash, turn off all the virus mess, and install TechStream). Reclaiming my MacBook for work and media

I will be posting in the review thread once I drive 5 hours back home from Illinois. I am so happy with the 91 tune. I can not thank @OVTune enough. It’s so nice to be able to drive 75+ on the parkway without any shifting other than really big hills. The truck just cruises and is so smooth. I feel so much more comfortable merging and passing now. I know the power is there when I need it. I think something that helped is I already had my truck warmed up before flashing and then I let it run for 15 minuets after flashing. I could be wrong but it seemed to make sense that it would help with the idle relearn.

 

Absolutely - next time you do a COLD start probably good to let it idle for a bit so it can relearn cold idle as well. Enjoy your drive!

 

Hey @OVTune, when are the revisions being released? Also will it only include the cold idle surging or will there be other things updated/fixed?

 

I bought the exact same machine for the same price. Works fine for the time, it’s nice knowing it has never downloaded anything else

 

About 2 days later and still no key. Anyone else waiting?
