    You won't and you can't disable airbags. Here is what one of the customization menus looks like. For all of the options, its either an On, Off or some other option. I've been over all the submenus and you can't even customize any of the radar/safety sense stuff. Look, if you're not comfortable poking around then settle for generic OBD or something more expensive to get more PIDs. If you want to get a dealer-level tool, this is the way to go. You don't have to flash TSBs if you're leery.

    That looks stupid simple. I must not have been in the right area for customizing... thanks

    I turned off the passenger seat dinger because my dog loves to ride. It still flashes at me on the dash.

    Yes. That does not go away.

    Personally, I am okay with it.

    The one that tends to catch my eye for some reason is the yellow passenger airbag On light.

    Noob here, so I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question. I'm trying to read as much as I can to get caught up... but with a 2020 MT... is this still an issue? I see most getting updates for their 2017-18 MTs. Has Toyota changed anything from the 18's to the 19's to the 2020s? Thanks!

    Not sure how I missed the Uber obvious customize button. I feel dumb now. Thanks again for all the help prior. Everything works wonderfully since the TSB update and Tune. Approaching 400 miles now, and it's settled in beautifully.

    If you pull the battery? Do you have to start over?

    If you add intake or exhaust, would it help to reset values? If a guy resets values do you have to re-flash?

    "If you add intake or exhaust, would it help to reset values? " No ...... but, if you do / or don't it'll still learn your new set-up.

    " If a guy resets values do you have to re-flash? "
    Normal procedure is to reset learned values after flash ......... so it would not make sense
    to do that continuous loop.

    Sorry in advance...

    First post says CUW files are attached... where are the *.CUW files?

    Buddy has a 2017 AT that needs an ECU update before the VFTune... He will try to find a friendly dealership to do it. But if not, I might have to help him out.

    Good question ...... I didn't see them either. You might need to tag Tony @tonered
