I tried this too in my 4Runner. I put it in S2 on-road in a place I couldn't go any faster than 20 mph and it helped but I don't feel like I should have to do this. I climbed the same hill in my Honda Accord in regular drive no problem.

I mean why are there so many different trims now, if you can't make the three that are meant to go off-road go off-road.

This is sadly true and unfortunate.

I was wondering this. If this occurs at slow speeds while towing I can see it happening. If it starts happening during regular city driving then I'd be even more concerned.

ah! just across town, that's no good

I understand if you wouldn't do this cuz it's a pain in the ass dealing with some of these dealerships but if you are able to bring your Tacoma into the dealer and have them check the ROB and report the overheating instance as an official TAS case to Toyota, that would help Toyota realize I'm...

Are you under warranty still?

Just took the 4Runner up a mountain on a narrow, paved road and the tranny temps started going up again so I put it in S mode (S2) which helped though it still got a little warm. I was going around 15- 20 mph (it was a narrow winding mountain road, so I wanted to avoid any head-on collisions)...

Yea see attached. Let me know if you need more.

The first dealer I went to didn't find it in the ROB either. I have no idea why one found it and the other one didn't. Either way yes, it's a bigger Toyota problem.

Try another dealer. You'll see my post on a previous page. I had to take it to three dealers before I found one that created a TAS case with Toyota based off what they found in the ROB. They never had to see it actually happen.

Toyo AT3s so nothing crazy. No extra load.

Just got the 4Runner back from the second dealer. They ran a health check and found no fault codes. They then ran the Record of Behavior (ROB) and found the two instances of high transmission temps. The first dealer I went to did not find this. The dealer that did created a Technical...

Has anyone found a dealer who could replicate this issue? I am bringing my 4Runner to another one this weekend to try and replicate it and I have an open case with Toyota. I'd like to try and connect my Toyota case person with any other dealers that have been able to replicate.

Thanks yea so I took mine to the dealer and same response as above, there is no code and they couldn't figure it out and to check with Toyota on any additional software codes, so I called Toyota and they said they have nothing additional so basically the response I got was that there is nothing...
