Lreed2487,, sorry to hear..
Sounds like a drastic need to get the TSB looked at for the shifting you describe.
ALSO,,, one additional point to your dealerships recommendation, they did try to say if I used premium fuel it would be more responsive, but I immediately told them to zip it before I...
So to follow up to the TSP upgrade and "reflashing".
Met with the rep from Toyota at dealership to explain the TSP reflash and transmission lag problem.
So here's the downlow from the latest version of a pro, mind you I met him at the stealership.
The reason for the transmission shifting issues...
Ya, if I had any idea about this, I would have stayed with A new Tundra instead which has its own issues but not a majpr major component as the transmission. UGHHHHHH!
f on u-tube its a wonder to see all the rock climbers going at it way out west and doing donuts,,ect..
I could never do that...
HMMM, Just picked up my 8k, 2018 taco while in for oil change and had the usual TSB correction for transmission performed about 2k miles ago.

uggggghh, I'll start by that, and I know this is like talking about the best car wax, but being out of Haverhill ma and traveling to boston at 5am, my average gas mileage is aroing 18-19mpg, and if I hit 21-23, then im not even at 40mph.
Am I crazy or is this the norm.
I tubed it and naturally...

The lightest is an ATV trailer, then about 4k trailer/boat, about 6k boat/trailer but only a few miles from dock to ramp, going very...
Thank You, this is my 3rd Tacoma starting back to the 80's and even a tundra with 375k miles on it to get me here, but I never had a transmission bump in the road so this is a first, Thanks again.
