Transmission Issue - Dealer Claims Nothing Can Be Done

[jpto]

I just ordered a scan tool as a DIY techstream alternative (Launch Creader Elite v2) that says it can reset transmission learning, which could be an alternative to the dealer if they refuse. I'll post an update once it arrives

Before you spend the money on a scan tool, you may be able to reset by taking the negative terminal off of your battery for 10-15 mins. I haven’t tried but this may reset the transmission memory.

good point, though I'd recommend getting a good scan tool if you do anything outside of the dealer. They're pretty essential these days for DIY tasks on modern Toyota's/Lexus (brakes, transmission, battery changes etc)

Please do a review of the Launch v2 when you get a chance.. I'm currently in the market for a new scan tool.
