    Is the file name still 04B03? Is there any indication it's 1.04 under flash manager?

    PLEASE WAIT TO REVIEW

    Let the truck idle for AT LEAST 10 minutes after flashing

    Do lots of driving;


    Baby it
    Drive it like you stole it
    Normal driving
    Highway driving
    City driving

    Let the truck learn.

    After flashing multiple versions of this tune, I can honestly say the truck doesn’t feel like it’s completely settled in until 250-300 miles

    We don’t need someone on the edge about buying this, backing out because someone hated it after driving 20 miles.

    :goingcrazy::goingcrazy::goingcrazy::goingcrazy::goingcrazy::goingcrazy::goingcrazy::goingcrazy:

    With that being said, I’m going change my crankshaft position sensor, flashing, then driving the shit out of this thing



    I promised y’all a 1.03 video and review. I got plenty of DMs and mentions on here. Work has been kicking my ass. But it’s settling down!

    Glad 1.04 released before I go to Hawaii again!

    I was going to post a quick review of 1.04 after flashing and taking a 20 mile jaunt just now.....but i completely concur with your assessment here.

    The gear change from 3-4 and 4-5 seem to be more intuitive now. Before, 4th and 5th would almost always come on too quickly in city driving (for my tastes anyway). 5th gear will still engage as low as 35mph, but not as quickly now.....so in instances where taking off from a stop and approaching an incline, the truck waits to engage 5th after creating the hill rather than lug/downshift/upshift, etc. Very pleased!

    I will also add that I did about half of my test drive doing 70-75 on the interstate on a very windy, Rainy day. I was reminded of how MUCH BETTER highway cruising is in this truck now over stock! It sticks with 6th gear and just goes......in stock form, a day like this with rain and wind would cause a 5/6 SHIFTING FRENZY on the highway. That issue is solved! Thank you @OVTune !

    Nope. It’s just there.

    But when you download it, the .hex file is named correctly

    That makes me a little giddy. Huge reason why I went with the tune is the 4-5-6 dick dance on the interstate. I can’t wait for the dongles to make it through customs.

    Hey AT 1.04 tuned guys,

    I opened the new PCM flash, but it still say V.1 on the flash name.
    I downloaded from it the new ECM files, both 87 and 91, but they are .hex files.
    Can someone just verify this correct?

    V.1 Folder is the 1.0 tune

    It’s fine. Just when you go to flash, you’ll have to choose the file type as “anything” or something.

    Successful flash, 20 min idle, and out about about. So far so good but agree - it takes some driving for everything to fully settle in. Updated review from me to come in a week or so once all is learnt ;)

    Sorry, this post is a tad bit misleading, your # extension 4B03 or 4B02 is all based on what your ECU checked at when you configured your truck. In this case dYl0n's is 4B02. Just thought I would clear this up in case someone is selecting what they see.

    The 04B02 or 04B03 are the ecu versions from Toyota.

    Nice. I'm jealous. I hope I get the activation code for my dongle soon.

    Here is a screenshot. Dropdown to "all files", this will show the hex file. choose this hex file to flash.
    Hope this helps.

    Correct.

    04b02, 04, etc., is what version toyota put on it.

    If I went to the dealer and got an update, it’s be whatever is newest.

    I'm going to say I don't notice much difference between 87 and 91. Just drove about 25 miles. I'm sure it'll take a bit to settle in. I've yet to chirp my tires even on the wet roads with a hard launch
