    Excellent! Yeah. The OV flashes are a lot easier and faster than the TSB flashes.

    You should notice an immediate difference. But for some folks, it takes repeated drives to notice. The tune, esp the AT itself, takes about 500mi to fully settle into the tune.


    That DTC thing is weird. I would not worry too much though. DTCs are minor compared to Learned Values.


    Enjoy the tunes!

    It depends on individual Taco and owners. There are strange inconsistencies between Tacos, which is odd for a Toyota product. And, drivers are drivers.

    Get some driving in and see what you notice. Then, swap to another tune and see. If things are not feeling different enough in you mind, swap back to Stock as a test.


    To me, all of the tunes felt greatly different. Initially, I tried about four different tunes before I settled on my favorite.

    Sounds like a plan. I have it in my head that I was expecting some huge change and it feels like not much has changed. Granted I’ve only driven 5 miles since the tune

    Like I said, everyone is different. OVT would say to not even comment on a test tune until getting in 150mi unless there was serious problem.
