Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Do you know for a fact what revision your are currently on?

 

04A60 accord to the OVTune software.
Fact of the matter, I have being disgruntled with this trans "cal" since the first week.
Been figthing them since.
And of course, I am the only one who is unhappy, etc.
Dude is a dink.
If 2.0 doesnt solve the trans issues, itll get traded for a 6spd, and my wife will just have to deal with it.

 

Go to the dealer, or a different one, tell them you went on a road trip out to Colorado, and had stumbling issues and you heard there is a tsb to correct this.

 

The other dealers are too far, for my schedule, and I am not taking time off work, to deal with something that takes 5 minutes.

I have already had to cancel with the next closest , 2x...

 

Then I guess you're sol if you aren't going to upgrade it yourself.

 

Have every intention on doing it.
Was reading through the info @tonered linked for me, and I will try to get it done this week.

 

It is not much different than flashing OVT. There is just the small worry that the TS update can potentially brick the ECU, which is fixable at home. So, try to follow the / checklist as well as possible. The TSB included in the download has similar instructions with some explanation behind it.

All that said, only a few people posted any problems. Having the OVT / Tactrix adapter is the biggest step since we all know that it can communicate and flash flawlessly.


Also with TS, you can do all available dealer customizations for free.

 

Yep, though my version seems to only have so many uses?
I have used it, just not for the TSB.
My truck isn't my DD, I have a work van.
As long as it is able to be handled @ home IF there is a problem....
Keep meaning to disable the seatbelt tones.. when the dog sits up front, she sets it off...

 

Yeah. The earlier version in the Update thread (V12.10.19) makes the CUWs executable for all Tacos but could not do anything else for the 2018+ Model Years. The version in my signature (V14.20.19) will work with everything through 2019s.

There is a set of bench flashing instructions if it locks. It is a very low concern but worth mentioning. I don't think there are any real commonalities other than using cheap adapters, low battery voltages, and using VM software.


Yep. The customizations available with the linked version will turn those off. The only thing that we cannot kill is the key in / door open chime. DC folks can quickly press the rubber door switch though. Unfortunately, that doesn't work on my AC.

 

It will drive close enough to "like a normal vehicle" that you'll find that you don't have to be constantly thinking about it while you drive.

 

Pretty much what I am after.
All the damn hunting cannot be good long term.

 

Sorry if this has been discussed, but I’m on 2.0 Beta running 93. B04. I’m on 285/75/16. Sliders, roof rack and some Plano boxes on top. I’m getting horrific gas mileage. I know it’s not accurate but on the avg mpg readout yesterday it said I was averaging 11-12. Going around 60-70. Any insight?

 

Anything up on the roof will absolutely tank your mpg. I think it’s what causes the most discrepancy in mpg between trucks.

 

Slow down, take the stuff off your roof, get smaller tires, get the module to recalibrate the dash to your new tire size.

 

Were you getting better mpg before the tune?

 

On 1.03 and 1.05 I was. Will disconnecting my battery cables help to reset learned values?

 

No, there is a button in flash manager

 

or techstream

 

I have a 2020 TRD Sport , downloaded the beta , installed , i have ran this for approximately 1000 kms (600 miles) and have noticed a better throttle response but other then that no real improvement in shifting. Still searching at highway speeds will drop down at any given time to 4th or 5th, keep in mind i live in manitoba canada and my commute is flat, and i mean flat highway. i was really hoping this would fix the highway speed shifting issue. not too sure what to do now, i will wait for the full 2.0 release and try that but if that doesn't work is suppose ill have to trade in for a Tundra. Anyone else have the same experience or am i the exception?

 

Don't you already have a 6spd?
