New transmission TSB software fixed shifting issues!

Guys this is a waisted update didn't fix anything other than reset the learning in the transmission. Idk about you guys but I'm about to trade in the taco . I've heard about the lawsuits started I'm just not sure they will even do anything .

 

Actually I don't nor ever had a problem with mine. It runs perfect.

 

I call Bullshit! It made a huge difference in how my transmission shifts.

 

Call it whatever you want. Even the service department could not tell the difference . They gave me a customer service number to complain .

 

Post your paper work from dealer!

 

had mine flashed wensday, made such a differance ive unhooked my shift/sense/pro, ive had that for almost a yr.. my 3rd tacoma in 4 yrs... now my 2017 pro reminds me of my 2015 pro, in terms of shifting,, and power when you punch it from a dead stop... but im just a guy thats had 4 tacomas, and 3 in the last 4 yrs,,

 

We all I'm glad it worked for you guys it didn't mine. I'm not here to argue or do I need to prove myself or anything . Might as well try the update anyway . We are on the same team I want the same thing as you guys . Have a good one !

 

When does this arrive for canucks? My dealer still hasn't heard a thing about this.

 

I know atleast one guy in canada had it done, or atleast he said he did.

 

Does this apply to any 2018’s? I had a 2017. Long story short, dealer messed up on routine maintenance and I was not happy with what happened. They offered to buy the truck back for a very reasonable offer and sell me a 2018. Had original tsb tranny flash done on the 2017 and it helped.

 

yes it does 16-18

 

Thanks petr321

 

Do it... get the 18 and start with a new mods

 

Guess that i have to wait for few more months till my 10k free service.

 

wait you have drive almost 10k miles since july 17, thats almost 1000 miles a dat for 10 days.

 

oh sorry i thought we were talking about the tsb update bing installed.

 

I'll bet they didn't actually do the reflash as they saids they did. There is a ton of difference in mine. So glad I didn't waste $800 on an OVTune.

 

I waited for nearly two hours I even walked back there to make sure they was and they had it hooked up but who knows. They have done around 15 trucks they said and its about 50 50 as to whether it made a difference . According to them the update was more for the surging at speed rather than shifting but some saw a improvement which was again according to the tech he figures was from the transmission learning reset with the update . I'm going to try the tune next or the shift pro unless I trade it. Could you tell a good difference between the shift pro or is it similar to having the ect power activated ? I just need it to hold gears longer I live in a rural area and it up shifts way too early.

 

If you want to know for sure it was installed, have them print out the TechStream info with all the calibration IDs.

 

I have an '18 & it shifts pretty good. Doesn't hold gear 1-4 very long probably for the "advertised" mpg's. Kinda bugged me when I first got it & started using ECT all the time. Was getting 15-18 mpg's with ECT. Now I have 1900 miles on it & find it drives much better & haven't been using ECT as much. Seeing 18-21 mpg's now. Might stop by my dealer & ask about the TSB & find out what my factory delivered version is & if there's a need for update.
