Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Let me know how it works. I have a 9/16 build date.

 

oh ok, my mistake. I thought I read it was sent out as part of 1.02

 

Updated from 1.01B (2,000+ miles) --> 1.02 (original).
All stock TRD Sport AT (04B03 and new CPS)

After 50 miles on the tune, I have had no problems. I had a stutter/vibration when cruising @ 75mph with 1.01B, but after the 1.02 (orig), this has stopped. I originally thought this was from road vibration or misalignment from my tires, guess not... With that being said, the shifting is like butter, as many others have said. The acceleration is so smooth compared to stock and improved from 1.01B. The gear hunting when traveling up hills or when carrying a load continues to improve. (I live in a hilly location) I have not had to use the ECT mode when getting on the highway as the normal D mode provides plenty of power. I have also found that you don't need to mash on the accelerator nearly as hard as when I had 1.01B installed. @OVTune continues to out do himself from the previous updates! I have NO problems with this tune, but will give it 100-200 more miles before my final take. Y'all have a great weekend and stay safe Florida

 

MT here ......... I normally run 87 ....... went to 89 for this tune, haven't used any 91 or 93 and I've not seen / heard any issues.

I'll use the 87 tune when it's sent.

 

I got the dealership to perform the TSB. I don't understand why they can't just plug the pickup into the computer for the update. They waste the mechanics time, 13 miles of my 91 gas to try to see if I'm lying. I can't imagine if Microsoft acted this way. Any how, files sent, now I wait.

 

A public thank you to OV for getting me my tune kit. Despite address changes and a small snafu at the post office he made it right and got me my kit. Now after I move to my new house I can proceed with the tuning process

 

Thanks man. I'll look forward to hearing how the 87 tune performs.

 

This happens if you try to start after a flash without cycling the ignition completely off first. Normal.

 

Now you've opened the flood gates...lol

 

He was on this morning when i got to work at 6:30......the guy's a machine....
Appriciate all the work and support...

 

@OVTune , order # 1908 here with manual trans. Myself and a few others have not received a tune file yet. If you find the time, could you send those out b4 the auto trans guys jump all over you again? Thanks

 

It's like people don't read when the PCM Flash says "turn ignition off"

 

Yeah, I took the "follow the prompts" suggestion to heart.
Still pull up the install directions each time I flash it......

 

@OVTune I'd be one of the others currently left out. Order #1884.

 

Yes I heard a few people didn't get emails.

Please send me an email if you didn't receive anything and I'll check it out

 

I sent an email earlier and just sent again now to make sure. Thank you!

 

Pretty sure I cycled off but it was almost midnight so who knows. Any idea when you'll have 1.02 shifting for 04B02s?

 

As did I. Thank you.

 

For those not on the 04B03, since we are able to use techstream, I think you might be able to flash the latest version using that. There's an ECU reprogramming option and when you check your calibration it indicates if there's another version available. Mine says no because I'm on 04B03 but those on B02 may have that option to flash it without having to go to the dealership.

I obtained my copy following the instructions here and it all works well with windows 10 64 bit. Windows Defender (shaking fist angrily) doesn't indicate any threats with it.

@OVTune, just sent another email. Order 1908, 4B10 manual trans. You have my .bin file that I sent last Friday (I think it was Friday lol) Thanks
