    Had mine at the dealer yesterday to have the blind spot monitors recalibrated and they didn't say a word. I know the tune is undetectable, but I would have to think the tech should notice something different during the test drive. I mean it's like night and day versus the stock tune.

    That’s assuming they pay attention. They drive tons of vehicles and for like 5 minutes tops.

    And my experience was that my Toyota dealers were confused and thought that my sliders were squished stock steps that got damaged from offroading... so... yeah... they didn't notice crap much less how it drove.

    I have a kit, did the dongle dance and pcm flash dance too. Fully functioning and licensed but don’t see the ‘18 tunes available.

    I'm wondering the same thing (posted the question on the previous page). My kit is on the way. I thought I read that 1.03 included the '18 AT tune, but I can't find any indication of it.

    @OVTune?

    That's been my conclusion too. :(

    Been looking for an eta, sort of like those waiting on their kits.

    If you’re wondering your ECU version, you can hook up and choose “identification”

    Wow, page 666 :devil:

    jus sayin :anonymous:

    Have about 300 miles on 1.03, auto 87 tune, bone stock. The touchy throttle tip in has gotten more civilized. Still room for improvement, but not as "digital" as it was. No sign of bad learning, power and shifts are still smooth. No significant change in MPG compared to 1.02 C 87 octane, around 18-19 MPG.

    We had sustained 20 mph wind with gusts up to 55 today, driving on the highway was a delight with 1.03. On stock tune, these conditions would gaurantee the 6-4-6 shift dance. With 1.03, I was able to maintain 6 most of the time at 65mph, few warranted shifts to 5th and only one shift to 4th on a fairly steep hill with strong headwind.

    Those of you still on the fence, purchase the tune.

    Since the dongles are pre registered does that mean we can skip straight to flashing

    I so confused ..... can ii skip to “identifying your ecu” part on the instructions since dongles are pre reg

    Dealership is going to do the Fuel Pump fix for my engine tick and hopefully my front differential hum later this month. I’m going to order this tune Since it sounds like it will help me hit 5th a little more. ? Is do I need to have all that fixed first before flash or will it not affect it
