Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Has 04B31 been released yet?

 

People don't read. Doesnt matter how many times it's been mentioned.

 

Mine fluctuates the same if defroster is on...

 

per Toyota Idle learning SOP, you suppose to drive stop-n-go style with variable speed..

 

this is a longshot, but here goes...
Anyone in the North Jersey area with the OV Tune willing to let me drive their Taco? So i can check out the difference.

 

Define “north” jersey. There’s a few of us in the PA/NJ area

 

How long does it usually take Ovtune to get your order/computer registered to start tuning?

 

Agreed and to reaffirm - thought I'd give 1.05.1 a test and shifting was not as precise as under 1.05. I switched back and felt the improvement immediately. Granted, I didn't give it hundreds of miles to settle in, but following the same procedure for both: warm up truck, load new tune, clear values, idle learning, etc... 1.05 feels better in my truck ('16 running 04B04 87 base). 1.05.1 just felt like it was a little slower/hesitant when shifting gears.

 

All- regarding those that have ECU version 04B03 from OVTune
1.05.1 04B03 is not available, as there is a TSB direct from toyota to fix this via updating the ECU. this should be performed first, and then run 04B04 files

 

Ringwood
Paramus
Paterson
Oakland, etc

 

I also went back to 1.05 and am happier with the tune. I didn’t have the problem 1.05.1 fixed but I like to try new things. I found 1.05 is better for me.

 

Little out of my range. Check the state BS threads

 

That looks like the AC kicking on and off. Mine does that on stock tune.

 

Yup. It seems like on the performance tunes it's a little more pronounced.

 

Hi All,

I know it's mostly about performance but i would like to know.
If you run it mild on the pedal, can you actually get the 91 worth over 87 with the difference in gaz price ?

I was able to do 12.5 l/100km (29.40 U.S. MPG) in my average for two days of a total of 280km (174miles).
This on 87 / Performance with LV & AT reset at flash.

Also, i will be hauling my RV (17') soon and wonder which one will make me the best economy..

Thanks..!

 

That’s an average of 18.8 US MPG, not 29.4. I can get up to 23 MPG if I try

 

If you want best gas mileage go with 87 base. Use ECT mode when hauling.

87 G/L also a good choice if you like performance and save on gas price.

 

Sorry, used à converter and might have used UK gal

I've tried 87 base one time and on a flat road at about 55mph It was not up shifting in 6th gear. But maybe I should run it longer?

 

Then 87 GL let you control your gears.

 

Anyone run this on a manual transmission 2019 in California? Better gas and power?
