Torque shudder not solved.

Contacted Toyota USA before I contacted dealer about torque shudder issue. Made appointment with dealer to have transmission refreshed. Was told it was a known issue and after reflash was told I sould be good for now. Yeah right. Instead of doing it around town it now does it on the highway. So now I no longer get the gas mileage the truck was originally known for because the shift points were changed to eliminate the issue. I still have the torque shudder. These trannys are junk and bring back the th old 3 speeds and 4th for overdrive. Screw gas mileage. Going to get rid of my Tacoma. Not sure if I'm going to stick with Toyota.

Just came here to vent, you've been heard. Good luck to you, hopefully you find something that makes you happy.

 

Aisin transmissions are known to be among the best

 

Ok, ok, ok, I’ll do it.....mine shifts just fine!

 

Mine seems to shift better with the bigger tires. Never had a prob before tho.

 

Hahahahahahahahahahah

 

Does it bother your husband also?

 

You are aware there is a solution to the auto Tran woes? Search “be a man and drive stick.”

 

Then all you need is a stage 2 clutch, short throw shifter, acculmulator delete, fluid change...

 

Keep making excuses for why you didn’t get the one with the man transmission

 

Sounds like you know your way around a stick. If that's your thing, who am I to judge.

 

Why would you contact Toyota before a dealer?

 

Exactly what I was thinking. Seems douchey to me.

 

I wanted to keep respecting Toyota so I got a manual trans. It worked for me.
