The TSB list here may not be current. Can't say.
http://www.techinfo.toyota.com has current TSBs.
If one does not exist today, it's just a matter of time B4 it does.

hi
like i said before, the avalon = 5 speed. camry = 6 speed. the issue in the 07 camry v6 is the shift flare, which NO current TSB fixes the issue. i have followed this issue since the beginning, and i have yet to find a fix.
perhaps it is an ecu issue which needs a reflash, but with transaxles replaced left and right with ecu reflashes called out in recent TSBs, i have not heard of any "actual" fix from all the complaints. correct me if i am wrong.
i agree toyota will eventually solve this issue, but does someone really want buy a new vehicle with the transaxle replaced after 200 miles of driving. i know i wouldn't. that to me is not a simple oil change, but it seems major.
don't get me wrong, i love toyota, and i would apply for a job there if they would hire me. but they NEED to be "MOVING FORWARD" but with these uprises in issues it is more like "MOVING FORWARD IN THE WRONG DIRECTION". that should be there new motto.
just my two cents guys. i hope the issues in both the i4 and v6 get fixed. until then, i will be at the local bar drinking my life away.
CHEERS!!!
