Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Any shipments to Canada today ?!?!

 

same here, nothing shows after downloading and installing everything. You should have to do NOTHING other
than plug em both in, run pcmflash and the dongle code will pop right up. Tried the entire process several times
on 2 different laptops and using 7 different usb ports.

 

I also had this problem, what worked for me is after you download the pcm flash right click on download and press “open in file”. There you will see a lone file, I drug that to my desktop and got it to work. Before this I had to download the pcm flash each time to get the dongle to work. This may or may not work in your case, but now mine works.

 

I don't follow, pcmflash is an executable there's only 1 file, the .exe.

I assume you mean the compressed file that comes down and the exe
contained within.

 

Exactly, sorry I use Mac had to dig out a old pc just for this tune thing

 

ah, ok makes more sense then, I support a MAC dept as well
as a windows network so I'd imagine there's an issue, not sure how
it will be fixed other than sending out new drivers again and then we
get to wait some more!

 

Received serial keys. Will be sending then out this morning. Hour or two from now.

Thanks

 

Didn't work for me.

 

Be sure to disable Windows Defender or whatever other virus detection software you're running whenever you attempt to download or run pcmflash.exe

 

Just a follow up on the P0607 code with CEL and TRAC OFF light I had on 1.02C. I reflashed 1.02C and then selected Clear DTC per @OVTune's instructions and all is good so far after 160 miles on the reflash. I found out also that my girlfriend had put 5 gallons of 87 in my gas tank the night prior to getting the CEL. Not sure if this was to blame. I will update if the CEL shows up again.

 

Okay everyone who is receiving " dongle not accessible" issue has been found. Sending out emails now. If you have this issue please email me if you have not.
Please email me.
Please email me.

 

Email sent!

I'm glad I brought my laptop to work today!

 

Thank you!!! I just had to catch up on 30 pages of posts to get this comparison. been running the 91 shift A for awhile... love it and didn't feel like reflashing. What's your load out look like? I'm heavy, on 285/70/17, and 4.56s. Thanks again!!!

 

No problem! All stock aside from 265/70R16 Falken A/T3W tires which are only slightly heavier than stock. So, additional weight and larger tires I can only assume would increase the seat of the pants power loss on 87.

 

Same - saved me from getting annoyed w/ the loss of power. I don't mind the extra at the pump for the fun of the giddy-up on premium. I am considering testing out Shift C just to see if 1st is a little less abrupt. It's still great in every aspect but I do wonder if I would "miss" the aggressive 1st so long as the shift FROM 4 to 5 and 1 to 2 are still smooth. Would love some more comparisons on this as people test them out. I know one member mentioned it was slower feeling...

 

There's some amount of irony in this, but I digress

PUMPED FOR M/T ON THE DYNO TOMORROW!

Serious question, is the test mule running stock intake/exhaust?

I hope so, good baseline for most ppl. But alas, we'll take what we can get

 

this question is best pointed to @Av8rJake

very much looking forward to the MT dyno.

 

UHHH.. I didn't want to "out" the guy.... if err this is the guy.

 

he mentioned it in the forum. nothing weird or secretive. iirc

 

well if that is the GUY... then his profile says he's got TRD intake/exhaust so should be close "enough" to stock as the intake doesn't do a TON from what we've seen and the exhaust seems to be more sound than massive improvement in flow...
