    I don't know why Toyota removed the tire pressure reading from the Advance PIP but was wondering if anyone know if the tire readings can be obtained from Scanguage or Torque app using the custom PIDs?

    The tire pressures and temperatures are on the OBD-2 connector but AFAIK it takes a device like the Toyota Techstream to read them.

    Edit: Here is some explanation and little hope for a Scn Gauge future improvement. See post by RobH starting with post 15

    I bought a
    'Mangoose" ( A very unfortunate name) which is a copy of a "Mongoose" that came with a bootleg copy of the Toyota Techstream software. It cost about $65 new on ebay several months ago.

    Edit: Looks like there are OBD-II dongles that will read all Toyota busses for about $30

    I'm not guaranteeing they will work but it shouldn't be hard to find online comments about them
