Those of us who have 2016-2018 models (and also 2019, but I leave this model outside of the scope of this specific request) with the Head Units ("Entune Premium Audio") made by Panasonic, may have an advantage of installing the latest software update, as several annoying bugs supposed to be fixed. :bravo:
In short, you would need to obtain and install via 4Runner USB port the 13TDANNA-DA11_0158.kwi file.
NOTE: Please pay attention that this specific update applicable _only_ for Head Units ("Entune Premium Audio") made by Panasonic.
For more details and update procedure, please see the Revision 2 of the following T-SB-0279-17 document:
https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10152184-9999.pdf
I am sure everyone understands that the .pdf from above has the links to update file that are specific to internal Toyota services and that we can't obtain the needed update using those links included in that document. This document just provides you with the information, but not gives you the update file.
The official Toyota way to obtain the Head Unit update is to download it via Toyota Downloads. But, unfortunately, the Toyota update site does not have that new update that we need. Only the previous version (13TDANNA-DA11_0146.kwi) is available for download. I do not know if that is intentional or just another example of Toyota's post-sale support negligence. Most likely Toyota just wants you to come to the service department. Those who still have warranty, should be able to get that done for free. But those of us who are out of 3 years warranty - we would be required to pay... And all it takes is just insert USB flash in USB port and follow the instructions.
I spent a couple days trying to find that new 13TDANNA-DA11_0158.kwi file, but failed. :shrug: That is why I would like to see if we have here, in our 4Runner community, the lucky 4runner owner who may have this file.
I see two realistic options on how to find it outside Toyota service.
The first option to check:
==========================
I assume that in the past, when the above TSB was updated to the latest Revision 2, the needed 13TDANNA-DA11_0158.kwi file was available for public download and hope that some of you may obtained it.
If that's the case, please just reply to this thread and share it with everyone here.
The second option to check:
===========================
This is only for people who recently bought the microSD card with the latest Toyota Maps update. I know that with the previous Toyota Maps updates, Toyota used to include the Head Units updates in the ..\Pana directory on the same microSD card.
If you one of the owners who has the latest Toyota Maps, please check your card and help the rest of the community by sharing it.
All you need to do is to take the microSD Toyota Maps card out of Head Unit and read it on any computer/phone/tablet that can accept microSD. If you find that 13TDANNA-DA11_0158.kwi file in ..\Pana directory (or anywhere else on the card), please copy the file and share with us.
NOTE: This file does not store any specific information about your veichle and does not have any of your private information. It is generic for all 4Runners specified at the beginning of this thread. You are not risking anything, but helping others.
I hope this makes sense. Thank you in advance!
