Tacoma - OVTUNE - VFTUNER - Update Info and Original Development

You betcha!

 

just got my key... it's on like Donkey kong!

 

Not me, but I won't have my tune kit until Wednesday so I have a few days buffer.

 

Have had my kit for a month at least. Painful.

 

ugh that sucks I'm sorry. I just flashed and gonna go for a drive (seriously, not trying to rub it in)

 

That's awesome! I emailed my serial yesterday morning. Still waiting on the activation key.

 

So I have a 2018 and when I go to try and read the ECU data the "read" button is just gray all the time. Anyone run into this before?

 

Yeah I live in Steveston and some days I work in Langley which is 100 km round trip. Having Nexus I'm sure I could do it.

.22 cents a litre x 80 litres almost $20.

Best not try for now lol.

 

In my Steve voice, No worries mate!
It’ll come eventually and I’ll be happy when it does.

 

Pretty sure we’re still waiting on 18 ECUs to be emailed out.... but if you got yours, your issue is likely your pc not seeing your dongle. Others with more experience may clarify if I’m wrong.

 

Haven't got mine so that must be the issue. I figured that it'd still let you read the ECU data but that could be wrong. I'll just wait! Thank you for the response

 

Yes! I ordered at the perfect time! I finally ordered it last night!!!

 

Should get mine Monday. I’ll be joining the waiting game with you!

 

** this will go into the first post**

Went for initial drive 17miles. Truck sat idle for 15min before going for drive. You can really feel the difference in how this truck pulls through the gears with the tune. It doesn't feel like it gasses out. Had it in D (no ECT) for 2/3 of the distance. Drove it pretty aggressively and ave 16mpg. Logged mostly city and some highway driving.

2 things I noticed: 1. The stall is still there when I go full throttle from a dead stop in 'D.' Seemed like maybe it was less apparent compared to stock but its not gone and still bothersome. Id expect the truck to just go, not go pause go... Ill test it more this weekend. 2. Driving at 35-40mph, Id press the pedal about half way, maybe more, to pick up speed and the truck still jump to 3rd then to 2nd gear to speed up. I feel like it should just know to jump to 2nd. It does a great job at accelerating at gear when cruising. Will have my review on other thread when I get some more drive time in.

This is on the 91 octane tune.

 

One other thing, Im not really feeling this tip in thing others are talking about... Doesnt feel overly sensitive to me.

 

Could I ask what counts as a pending shipment? Would that be an order placed a month ago all the way up to a few days ago? Or is it just a big shipment of what you had in stock?

 

for anyone who had received tracking numbers so far

 

I think there’s more too it than that.

 

Not really
