G'day guys, I'm a bit late on this one, but I did have the same thing, my is early 2012 model, manual, with 40k or so on the clock.. I had noticed on the very odd Occassion, I slight miss type thing, when under slight load, thought I was dreaming the first few times, over a couple of months when I felt it, still seemed to run fine, but wasn't doing it to often.. Went for a trip down the coast, and the wife felt it too, seemed to do it 3 or so times, on the way down.. On the way home it did it again, then it did it for about 10 seconds, thought it was going to cut out all together, and was about to pull up, and came good. Vehicle ran brilliant after this episode, all the way home, 2.5 hours. Had no engine light or anything come up, was due for service the next week, apparently, the computer was upgraded in mid 2012, asked toyota to do this upgrade, which, from what I believe, was to overcome a miss around the 2000rpm mark.. Also did the injector values, all good, no codes were registered, vehicle has been fine, since that bad miss on the way back from the coast, haven't felt it since.. Thinking maybe a tiny bit of air in the system.. Guess I'll never know, but all great now.. Have also been using BP fuel just for your info.. Hope yours is all sorted.. Cheers fellas.. Odog

your miss, does it happen when you power on from cruise? I have a miss and not having luck finding it... happens when you accelerate from a higher rpm cruise (anywhere from 2000-3000)[B]Steve[/B]

Brockbaker - cannot believe I have found your thread. Have been battling with he same issue with our 2012 diesel manual when we had a steinbaur chip fitted at 120k - now 270k! I know it was a awhile ago - but did it fix the problem long term with the ECU upgrade TNF 52/12? Looking forward to hearing back from you. Thanks in advance.
