GEN 3 TACO TRANNY: MAYBE NOT QUITE AS BAD AS SOME THINK

Techstream?

OBD fusion App?

Torque App?

Why not see EXACTLY what's going on?

Nah.

 

Math is calling you again.

2000 is 25% more than 1600. 2000-1600 = 400. 400/1600 = .25

 

2000 is 25% more than 1600

But 1600 is only 20% less than 2000.

Take a calculator. Divide 1600 by 2000 then hit % you'll get 80. Which means 1600 is 80% of 2000.
Leaving a difference of 20%.

 

I know. Was just shitposting; that's why I worded it that way. But 1600 to 2000 is a 25% increase.

 

It's not that big of a deal. Like I said in town it runs great. Runs great out of town. Seems to be more peppy
than my 4.0 was in my 2nd Gen. Get it above 2700-2800 and it scoots quite nicely. Just shifts down in places or seems to where my 2012 Taco didn't. Overall very happy with the truck and the tranny.

 

I hear ya bud.

In theses times we all should shit post more. Good Lord know we all could use it.

 

Is there a way to look up if my vin falls under the tsb?

All the discussion in the world about math, percentages and the such does not change the fact that your truck downshifted from 6 to 5th. Your tac confirms it. As said earlier, sport mode does not keep your transmission in one gear.

 

My 19 got flashed up with the TSB. Like a new truck now. Before it was like I had a 2500 lb trailer hooked up all the time.

 

You are all both correct and incorrect as well. This is why we tend to use Relative Percent Difference RPD in science world. RPD=22.222%
