    Im new to the tundra world and have a code P1445. From what I've read, its a sensor that is expensive to fix only because of where its located on the motor. I usually don't have issues with auto repair but have been swamped with work. Ive been told that there are some tunes available "Eco tunes" that might be able to bypass these eco sensors. anyone know about the code and or ways to take care of it and if a tuner would do the job?

    Ive heard that the code isn't a big deal and doesn't "need" to be fixed but I worried about something else happening and not knowing because the check engine light is already on
