    I was going to get a techstream but figured I would try this thing called a Carista because it works on other makes and models. Its a wifi OBD2 device that just plugs in and works with a app on your phone. The only downside is you have to pay for the "pro" software to unlock features. All of the options you can change is attached for a 2016 Tundra.

    I turned off the seat belt dinging, and increased the light duration and it worked fine.

    I looked on the app and saw that it supported “2nd Gen” Tundras 2007+, you didn’t have any issues with your 2016?

    I used this app a lot with an Audi. Worked great on setting changes. Also feeds some info into race track apps like Harry's

    only issue I have with it is the 1 week pass for $9.99 or the annual fee of $39.99 for the app.

    only thing I had to do was buy the cable once and techstream "lite" version came on a cd with the cable. I have been using the same cable since our 2014 4runner and have just "updated" techstream over the years for "free" to use on the 2015 camry, 2016 highlander, 2016 Tacoma and now the 2018 tundra.

    edit : forgot to add, I have no issue with carista, its a great app for most people, but since I have the technical computer aspect, its not much hassle to find an updated techstream for when I get new Toyota's.

    for me its more cost effective to use techstream than carista.

    I’m assuming it’s to keep ducting from getting that musty smell after sitting a while.

    ....and more corona.
