Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

ZENDESK TICKET 16715 hoping Matt @OVTune would take a look at it, sorry to bother

 

Take a look at what?

 

The ticket

 

hahahah just wondering what the ticket was about. Maybe we could have helped him out.

 

Handheld problems...didnt mean to be rude

 

Not rude at all - Sorry we can't help with that one.

 

I was using the tune software for 16 months or so then one day all the buttons were grayed out. The system ID did not change.

 

Blame a windows update that added features to windows defender. It added a setting making it more difficult to actually disable.

 

Tried 04B04 stock premium thx and non-thx and I think I prefer the non-thx version.

 

Still waiting for this magical MPG increase on the O4B04 tune. Stock Gears, Stock tires (however running 265/75/16, base 89 Octane With THX. Shifting is as expected while learning. Pretty good actually. Take off Tip-In is ok. Take off power is, not bad, not great. Good On Ramp acceleration but the pedal has to be pushed pretty far. So...I’ll keep rolling it for a while but it’s definitely not as crisp as 1.05.1 87 Oct on my truck. Haven’t had a chance to climb Mountain passes yet to see what the dreaded down shift to 4th does. We’ll see.

 

Has anyone received handheld files yet?

Yes thank you I sent in my email the day this latest tune came out. Just wondering if anyone’s actually received their files yet.

 

Nothing for me yet. Hope by the end of the week. Im in no big rush but id like to have the file for my dyno running next week. I wanna see how much of a change it is.

 

Not yet but would rather wait for final, final since some are having minor issues.

 

You don't need to keep posting that. We did that already.

 

Still don’t have 500 clocked, but wanted update how prem-thx-stock-33 is running on my B04 truck. Started rough, but has smoothed out. I’ve reset values in the past and there was one other tune that had this rough start. That one didn’t seem to smooth out the way this one has. This tune has become very nice. I’ll be doing two camping trips within the next week. One towing, the other not. They’ll both take the truck through some steep climbs. I’m interested to see if the truck will double down to 4th like others have described. So far, it hasn’t and I live in a very hilly area.

I want to make make sure that I mention with emphasis that my truck has never not had misfires. Sometimes a lot... to the point where I was concerned. The truck now has fewer than ever. Even less than stock. The last 4-5 drive cycles have had zero. Thanks @OVTune Mat.

 

I've just finished putting 1200 miles on the premium fuel thx 04b04 tune while towing my small trailer.

Haven't had a chance to check it out without the trailer, but overall it ran great, way better than stock. MPG's stayed right where I was without the trailer on a stock tune.
Shifts were much better than 1.05.

I like to tinker, and I bought a VF Tuner license, so I'll mess with that, but overall, I'm pretty stoked.

 

I did this on mine. I’m running 265/70/16 Duratracs (which are stock tire size). Initially I had flashed Premium Stock THX and I felt it shifting to early for my liking and bogged during city driving. I’m going to be adding sliders soon so I went ahead and flashed Premium 33” THX to test it out and I prefer the shift points on this one more so far.
