    Yes. Toyota charges thousands of dollars for a subscription. What you find online are cracked (pirated) versions that are significantly cheaper. I wouldn't personally use them, because it's illegal, but many do.

    Also, I'm still wondering what you mean by cleaning the oil. Did you do an oil change? What exactly did you clean?

    Oil (see link below) is a viscous fluid. How do you clean it? Do you filter it? Do you dump it out of the oil pan at the bottom of the engine and put fresh oil in? Do you pick particles out of the oil by hand? I'm just not understanding how one cleans dirty oil exactly. Normally, waste (dirty) oil goes to an oil recycler and gets recycled into fresh oil with massive industrial machinery costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Do you have that?

    The T word get's tossed out a lot, usually unfounded, but you may have hit the nail on the head.
