    I use Torque Pro with a bluetooth OBD2 adapter for general fault code and live sensor monitoring. Does the trick for diagnosing basic emissions stuff.

    Are there any apps, whether on phone or PC, that can interface with the ECM to perform diagnostic tests? Meaning, besides spending serious coin on the Toyota Techstream PC suite.

    I got spoiled having the Carsoft software and cables for all my old BMWs and want something similar for the Tundra.

    Probably the Chinese copycat of the tech stream cable with a copy of the software. A bunch of guys bought it directly from China for like $35 or so as I recall.

    You will need to run an older version of Windows like 7 or XP.

    DOS Box can handle that. Do you have a name for this company or know where to get it?

    Go on Tundratalk.net and search for “techstream” to find all the info you want. People have been talking about it for years.

    Thank you for that. I've got it up and running on a VBox per the instructions and was trying to use a generic USB to OBD2. Read on Tundratalk I need that specific J2534 Techstream adapter. Ordered and on the way...
