Default Does techstream work on our cars

I have Toyota Techstream from when I owned my Tundra, does anyone know if it works in the 3IS? I want to set seatbelt warnings off, windows to open with remote and also hopefully program my new TPMS sensors.

Thank you!

Its my understanding that it does. I have a can-bus cable from ebay but need the software. From my research it seems the software is the big thing not the cable. I would try. I had the dealer do " dealer options" for the window up thing. I came from a VW and this was the first mod I did when I got the car. The only bad thing is the windows dont roll up with the remote like the VW

Yes techstream works on our cars.

I have used it to program LPS in comfort of my own home.

Will be trying to program TPMS this weekend.

Yup, Techstream definitely works on the 3IS, as long as you have a J2534 cable.

I'd like to offer you another option as well: use our Android app with a cheap Bluetooth OBD adapter. No need to lug around a laptop, no need to deal with installing a 32-bit version of Windows, no cables, no trouble.

We support most LPS that the dealer can set. We don't have the seat-belt chime setting yet, but it's coming up in the next version of Carista - we finally got approval from our lawyer. TPMS programming is not supported, but we have it in the plans for a future version. Click the link in my signature for more info.

yes, but you need version 8 or newer. Version 7 doesn't list any cars newer than like 2012 or so.
