    I was driving to work tonight on a straight and level road with cruise control set at 50mph and I felt 2 distinct bumpity bumps that felt like engine misses. They were really close together. I've thought I had felt something similar before but this time the road was so smooth that there was no doubt. The truck has less than 2500 miles on it.

    Has anyone else seen this problem? I seem to recall reading about similar problems here on Tacomaworld but was not able to find them again. Maybe as a software update that the truck needs or is there a worse problem?

    I will be taking the truck into the dealer for the first time when I get around 5000 miles so I'd like to at least have some ammo before I do if for no other reason than to not get blown off by some dealer BS.

    Thank you.

    Not sure. Whatever they would be at 50mph on straight and level roads. I'm getting setup with an odb adapter. Trying to decide if I want to stick with Torque Pro or go with ODB Fusion with the Toyota add-on.

    If you find out let me know. I have a 100 mile a day commute and experience it consistently. I have had the TSB done and flashed which seemed to help for a bit but its back to this again. It just feels like a slight stumble over and over.

    Yep. Maybe someone smarter than us will chime in with the answer.
