Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

Super easy. Like, someone could search @lapoltba or my posts for a link to TS V14?

Otherwise, TS V12 have been posted like wildfire since the TSB tunes dropped.

 

Great news! Thank you ovtune. Will keep a close eye on the manual thread.

 

Ahh that's interesting! Can I just flash using the OVTune 04B04 file with PCMFLASH or must I use Techstream for that? I've never used Techstream...

 

You have to use TS. Here's a good step by step for the flash and getting TS V12:

Here are the AT TSB CUW files:

If you want TS V14, which will hook up to all 3rd Gens through 2019, here's a link from my drive:

91 performance tune for 04B13

 

I haven't flashed any of the beta tunes yet (preferring to observe the bugs being worked out first) but I would try one if the S only Gear Lock was part of it.

 

Sweet! I guess I'll be taking my laptop to Moab with me
And a big thanks for getting some 2.0 betas out before my trip. I know you did it just for me haha! My ol' poc drives waaaaay better now.
Here's hoping the towing is better as well.

 

Is there anything that maps out each of the CUW files to their corresponding ECU IDs? I found it for the manual files, but not the AT files:

TSB T-SB-0058-18 Rev 1
-- T-0033-18.cuw is for 2016 and 2017 Tacos with ECU IDs of 04B10, 04B11, and 04B12. Applying the update will give you 04B13.
-- T-0037-18.cuw is for 2018 Tacos with an ECU ID of 04B70. Applying the update will give you 04B71.

TSB T-SB-0062-18
-- T-0034-18.cuw = ?
-- T-0036-18.cuw = ?

 

just run the file, it does a check to see if it applies. if not run the next one.

thats what I did, way faster than looking it up.

 

That's a good question. The easiest answer is that the tune will not load if you click the wrong file. My best guess is the split among the files is the same as the MT split?

 

Sweet, is there a change log we can view?

 

#metoo

 

As has happened for the past three AT Beta releases, the notes have been published on the OVT Public Beta page with the tune files.

 

There's also a list of people floating around who are willing to help others get their ECU updated, if you live near one of them/us

 

This is for anyone.... Feel free to add yourself, just copy and paste.

You will be better off just getting the 04B04 update. I finally had it out with my dealer and they updated me. The day before they updated me all the 2.0 betas where taken down so will still have to wait until the end of the week when Mat said the next round of beta releases. Good luck.

 

Just flashed stock 04A60 on my Tacoma and drove to the dealer to get the 04A61 flashed and I gotta say that the stock tune is not that bad. Two things to note, 4.88 gears and premium gas. I never tried the stock tune in this configuration before. If you hate your truck and dont want to pay for a tune then try the latest TSB from Toyota with premium fuel.

 

I updated from 04B03 to 04B04, didn't even bother with driving it stock, went straight to 1.05!

 

Yea, update and went to 1.05 87 GL....

 

I hesitate to ask this, because it's clear you guys really know what you're talking about, and I know absolutely nothing about this stuff (I bought my truck 2 weeks ago), but I'm trying hard to catch up...

What does 04B03 and 04B04 mean? It's total greek to me.

I apologize for being such a rookie, but I'm dissatisfied with my purchase, so I'm trying to learn on the fly.
