    I had low expectations going to my dealer. My dealer are a bunch of lazy fucksticks. They lived the clutch pedal. Didn’t help. They wouldn’t even do anything about the TSB. I won’t buy anything from those asscrammers again.

    We’ll Plan B is now my target to fix this update.

    Plan B is good. Hopefully, there is no need for Plan C.

    That hurts. But, $18 is hard to sneeze at.

    In the end, a few weeks wait isn't really that bad in the scheme of things. It does feel like a nasty itch though to get this update.

    Hello, I am new to the forum and new to owning a Tacoma. I have just over 1,000 miles on my MT sport and don't seem to have any of the issues discussed here (yet). I was hoping someone could chime in regarding 2018 models and if they are having these issues as well? Thank you in advance.

    And that's the thing... I don't have any complaints about how my truck drives. So the update would be an unexpected, pleasant surprise.

    Oh yeah... and I work at a dealer, so I could just get it done here. But... no.

    :wave:Welcome. Unless you have any issues, I would leave well enough alone until a TSB (or recall) comes out. Until then...just do this:lalala:

    agreeing with Steve. if no issues then no fix! if you have any of these issues come up then you'll know. just browse around the early pages of these threads to see what the symptoms look like. FYI most, but not all, of the folks working to do this now are also tuned with the OV tune... look around you'll get more info.
