    My 2017 Tacoma's headlights remain on during cloudy days. I have them set at "auto." Is there any sensitivity adjustments that can be made? Checked in the manual and couldn't find anything. I want to make the "auto" headlight feature less sensitive. Thanks all!

    There's a setting in Entune for auto headlight sensitivity... 5 levels of adjustment.

    Sorry, for 2018 it's part of the premium package. The 2016-2017 models had a single "premium and tech package".

    I looked in Etune and couldn't figure it out. I have a 17 Limited with JBL. Can anyone please walk me through the settings? Couldn't find it in the manual. Thanks so much~

    Dam...

    That's really dumb, you'd think auto headlights would be a "tech" thing.. thus being in the tech package for 2018. :facepalm:

    The Auto Headlight are a pretty nice feature, I set them the day I bought the truck and have not touched it since.

    Can the auto headlights be added to a non premium package Taco?

    Is there a way to do the same for the signallers? When I'm signalling, turn, and then straighten out, the signal turns off too quickly. Is there a way to adjust so that I'm able to make the complete turn before the signals turn off?
