Transmission Clunk TSB L-SB-0042-25 (1 Viewer)

Well this is my concern as it is not clear. A reset can be achieved with a battery disconnect but for the update, they actually need to have a software update to reprogram the ECM/TCM... Does anyone have more info on this?

It's a software reflash not a reset.

At the dealership now, will update when i get it back. The technician says it’s an update.
Just got it back. Smooth as butter! It was getting pretty bad, almost every light. Can already feel the difference!

I can also confirm that it is a lot better after service.

This is great hearing positive updates to the re-flash. Did you need to bring it in for both a diagnostic eval and then schedule a service time to leave it with them?

No, just schedule a service directly and tell the service advisor that you have this issue. Show them the TSB if they are not aware.

Has anyone gotten the update from Toyota for their transmission and if so, did it make any difference?

Did you not read a couple messages above your post?

Also, not sure if you meant Lexus, or if you truly meant getting the TSB from a Toyota Dealership.

Maybe @Southland53 didn't realize this thread is 2 pages .

I made my appointment for tomorrow. I was planning to DIY my hood flutter foam, but since I am bringing it in I may as well get that addressed too. Wish me luck, bros.

Just had this TSB done. The hesitation coming to a stop seems to be gone.

Good think you're not doing the hood yourself. Mine was done at the dealer months ago and the first one at that location. They ended up breaking a tab on the cowl end (which they replaced) and had a dent in the center of the hood after the job. Which they also fixed... So don't attempt to fix the hood yourselves!

Update: still smooth. A side effect, I can now cruise on the highway! Used to always downshift or stay high rev when releasing gas, now I’m getting 21mpg from 16! Everyone update if you’re clunky!! lol
