Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

I assume it’s like those people that burst into flames when they go near a church, his just goes up in flames when it rolls on the lot

 

I'm pretty sure that was a guy just ribbing Mat cause he put so much time into integrating TSB 0062

 

I am at 13 months with just under 6k...lol

 

31months, 31k miles

She's getting old

 

Yup, I went from a 2001 Tundra with the V8, to the 2017 Tacoma. The old Tundra was absolutely bulletproof. Drivability was amazing. There was never a hiccup, jerk, stumble, lack of power, or anything negative. I had high hopes for all the new technology in the new Tacoma. If it drove nearly as well as the trusty old 300K mile Tundra, I would be very happy.

 

Yup I'm.hoping the tune will make it relatively close

 

Glad I’m not the only one

 

No user comments on 1.05 yet? No updated first page?

 

Mat appears to be a busy man, let him make everything perfect before posting

 

Damn, I wish someone had said this before today!

 

He also may have asked testers to not comment publicly on 1.05, and it wouldn't be the first time. When us MT folk were helping him with the development of 1.04A, he requested that we kept our public comments about it to ourselves for the final test iteration because people have the tendency to take the comments about an unfinished product as gospel, even though they KNOW it's unfinished and in development. They ignore that and take the comments to be the final verdict/review and then start spreading shit based on that

 

Truth.

Been there done that.

 

At 35 months with only 7.5k miles. Hate driving it the way it is, and this tune will decide if I keep it.

 

I know right! I'm just bored and don't want to go to work

 

Whats the new TSB number I need in order to install 1.05? and do I need to reflash my ECU back to stock to have this done?

 

I'm there with you

 

bored and at work over here. theres at least some entertainment here

 

So I reflashed 1.04r, and it definitely learns. Anyone who thinks otherwise, reflash 1.04r, go for a drive and get back to me.

 

Yes, the version provided is certainly a test version being used to finalize 1.05. That said, my initial impressions are very positive. Effortless acceleration, smoother shifting, ZERO lugging, no quick upshifts, smoother engine performance, and the torque converter changes are very noticeable and positive. More to come, but so far so good.

 

I thought Mat said he wasn’t able to eliminate learning in the past, but drastically reduce it. He mentioned if he changed all the shift maps to be the same it wouldn’t shift. He was able to reduce like 35 maps to 5 or something like that.
