    Hello Tacoma Peeps,

    I have a 3rd Gen Tacoma (2016). I bought this from the USA and export it to Guyana,South America. I would like to get the transmission update. I am wondering if there is anyone who can do this remotely. Meaning they hook up to the truck via my laptop. Or if I can get the update files and used techstream.
    Thank you

    You can search on the forum and learn how to do it yourself, if you'd like.. There are activated versions of techstream floating around along with update files.
