2016 OVTune Tacoma 3.5L Manual Transmission / Engine ECU Reflash

At this point i think you might need to submit a ticket with OVTune. I'm currently at work and I don't have access to my computer to help you any further. good luck!

 

Thanks a ton for the advice!

 

guess I'll go do it once I finally say f it and stop working today

 

LOL
i just loaded it,got only 50km on it and was in a rush to home depot (working on iron filter)seems beefier lower end but tip in still the same not sure yet.

 

I don't really have a problem with the throttle tip-in on this truck. It feels pretty linear.

I'm glad it's not like a lot of cars with really aggressive tip-in that tries to make the vehicle feel "fast" or "powerful" (when it's not) and ends up just making it hard to pull away smoothly from a stop.

 

Really? Throttle response is terrible on the stock tune. It feels like there is a rubber band connecting the pedal to the throttle body.

 

the problem with to soft of a tip in is the delay in throttle response,adding difficulty to shift timing.

 

I'm running it. Slippery ride to work this morning, and crap traffic on the way home, so I wasn't able to try any good pulls. Idle seems a bit rougher
than the standard tune. I can feel it in my feet.

 

Ok so I'm having some issues with the flash manager. Got it all installed, I select no dongle, 2018, 04a70-mt, 1.05, 91, FOB and hit download.

When i go to flash I click the tuning menu in flash manager and all the options are greyed out. There is nothing to click in order to proceed.

huh... guess i had to reinstall pcm flash, then update the flash manager. weird.

 

Screen shot?

 

In Flash Manager under the config drop down click install all software.

 

i did that several times, when i go to tuning>P5Flash Utility it says ready in the bottom left of the flash manager and nothing happens.

when i click on tuning>pcm flash utility, i get an error that says guardant dongle not found make sure that the guardant dongle is connected to the computer and that the latest driver is insatalled.

ok now for some reason i p5flash is greyed out now. what the fuck!!!! I wish I didnt have to be a goddamn software engineer in order to get this shit to work. I'm not exactly computer retarded either....

 

you Canadians get me every time with your Ks

I'm like god damn thats a lot of driving... wait this just came out... dammit he's in canada...

 

I did the same thing. For a second I was like fuck, he's putting Shellshock to shame

 

Trying to install flash manager, when I click on the link in the new instructions it pulls up a page that says the file is no longer available. Anyone else have this issue?

 

links got pulled while Mat fixes some things because people can't follow directions

 

@Shellshock - I loaded 87 FOB this morning... so far me likely! I’ve been only running 87 tunes, this is the best yet (performance wise).

 

That's really good to hear. I loaded the 1.05/93 from a month ago because I was interested in what all the high octane fuss was about. I'd really like to just run 87 as I don't need crazy power. I have to say though, the truck drives crazy good compared to the 1.03 I was running for the past 5k miles.

 

What is the FOB option do?

 

full Otto, it's the performance tune
