Don't know if anyone knows about this, but in the 100 series forum but there is a thread there about the Toyota TIS Techstream software.
There is a link for a download of the software that already has it installed in a Virtual box environment (to save you from malware) as when you buy the little mini-vci connector cables (chinese knockoffs) they usually come with some version of the software, but like mine it is just a burned disc with the files.
Anyways, been wanting a small Windows laptop for a while for stuff like this seeing as the wife and are a pure Apple Ecosystem in the house so grabbed a Lenovo Yoga 12 (2nd Gen) off ebay last night for about $100. So if anyone has a NEWER Toyota with the OBD II port, and a spare laptop, you can easily download the software and do some diagnostics with it that are more advanced than what a normal scanner will do. If you want, I am happy to offer my laptop and service to come up and do stuff for anyone that may need the software to do more in-depth diagnostics, program key transponders, mess with options, etc.
