OVTune Tacoma 3.5L Auto - Transmission / Engine - ECU Reflash

Doh... Nevermind, Resolved now.. re-downloaded Tactrix drivers and it recognized. All is good.

 

Thanks Matt!

 

How the rest of the 1.05 04B31 files coming along?

 

Been away from this for awhile. Has there been any update on custom tuning yet?

 

Nope.

 

Only thing I want is the idle fix and S-mode gear lock!

 

After getting a pulsating idle on 1.05/87 version 1, flashed revision 1. Idles smoothly at 600 rpm. Throttle response feels better than ver. 1, but could be my imagination. No issues initially at 40 miles.

 

Are you able to use a Macbook Pro as long as it is running Windows?

 

Yes,if you run Windows through Bootcamp

 

Anyone else have any issues with the .reg file? just got it today, and all it did was open a blank page... Any help would be rad. And i did send an email back to OV asking the same.
Thanks

 

Um. Does that mean I cant tune my 19 even tho I selected 19 at checkout?

 

2019 04B30 and 04B31 are ready. We are working on sending them to everyone

 

I just got my ovtune kit in the mail today!!! sweeeeeet! Now that I'm reading the instructions online I'm a bit nervous in regard to this

I was going to use my girlfriends laptop but now I'm afraid it may crap out at some point down the road. What did the rest of you guys do? Go buy a new laptop to ensure it's going to last and be readily available? I don't understand if the tune etc is linked specifically to my truck why I can only ever use the software on just this one PC.
This isn't a dig on OVTune at all.. I'm super pumped to use this. I'm just not sure what to do.

 

Apparently, the computer/handheld is the dongle.

 

So what do I get, the $600 or the $770 option? Dude locally has the cable, probably will just run 85(mountain fuel) or 87.

 

They are exactly the same other than the cable.

 

That's a pricey cable!!!

 

So I just flashed the 1.05 87 octane 04b30 file and took my 2019 for a spin. I was only out for about 15 - 20 minutes so maybe it's not fair to make a judgment just yet. I'm hoping there's a learning period or something but it seems like it's shifting from 2nd to 3rd way too fast for my taste. It also seems like it's shifting from 5th to 6th pretty quick as well. I've gotten used to driving in ECT mode with the stock tune so maybe the 87 octane file was totally wrong for me but I've got half a tank of 87 still in the truck. I've tried to read a lot in regard to the tunes in general but I'm unsure if the 1.05 04b30 is the newest release or not. Anyone else tried this version or have any thoughts on pro's / con's of the different revisions for octane? Thoughts anyone?

 

It has recently come to be known that the current version of 1.05 is the "mpg" tune. This is why its still upshifting so prematurely, getting into the higher gears as soon as possible. Sounds like when the new flash manager and 1.05 release, we will get some more performance oriented tunes.

 

Awesome! I appreciate the info..that definitely makes me feel better
