    It was St. Patty's and I like whiskey. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

    Full send tune where throttle is either 0 or 100. That’s all you need.

    Just turn all the 3D maps into evenly faded planes at different, random angles.

    Ctrl+A then Ctrl+I = Super Tuner. 2 clicks is all it takes.

    If their tune is for your ECU ID then you can flash someone else's onto your vehicle.

    Perhaps if you tell us what the bait is, we can bring those jokes to the surface where they belong.

    That’s not how jokes work.

    I've never had a flashing error before. I just updated to vF tuner 1.2.9.9 and now I can't connect to the server. My errors are::: Cannot open file C:\Program Files (x86)vF Tuner\89663 04A61 STOCK vft. The system cannot find the file specified. Also have another:::Unable to prepare ECU Read. -ECU is not read capable. Check vF Tuner installation folder for stock ECU files.C/program files/vF Tuner/. The files are there and I have all virus software off and windows security off. Sure could use some help! Very frustrating.

    1. cannot connect to the server is internet / connection problem. I would recommend just try again

    2. You cannot read your ECU if you have previously tuned/flashed it. And if you know your ECU ID, which it looks like you do, there is no reason to try to read your ECU.

    Thank you for the quick response and the advice. Yes I have previously flashed two tunes and an am trying to flash another. I'll try it again and let you know how it goes.

    After I Prepare ECU then Select Calibration File what shows on my screen is the 2018 files...89663 04A61 Stock vft. When I try to open this file what I get is View and track your downloads. I can no longer see the list of tunes to choose from. How can I find them?

    Did you buy tune packs? If not your stock tune is in the C:/ program (x86) folder under vftune/Tacoma. I put my tunes in a folder on my desk top for easy access.
