Yes I did and for what I read in the forum are always same ones. Dealer tells that OCV and Camshaft sensors need to be replaced. But the reason I wrote here is: ECU is the problem and How Can I Get Toyota to approve the change since there is no recall for it and probably never will. Is not fun to drive the car and all of the sudden idle rough, stall and VSC + Check engine light up. Then I need to desconnect the battery wait 5 minutes, put it back in and vuala, got the power again.

Each time this happens, call the dealer and tell them to send a towtruck.
Once you have done this a couple of times, they will either get the message (replace the ECU), or you can threaten to Lemon Law the car.
It takes three of the same (unresolved) maint. issues to declare the car a lemon.
If you had followed this practice up till now, you would have a case already.
Quit "fixing" the problem yourself.
