Add me to the list as well.
m3power326, 2013 FR-S, 3208 miles, 7084xx, still driving until my appt Tues when they will reflash ECU, O'Fallon IL.
----------------
I picked up my FR-S from Newbold BMW in O'Fallon, IL on 9/7/12. CEL and TC lights came on at 3208 miles. Code pulled was p0019. All that seemed to be wrong was a weird idle with occasionally dipping down from 600-700rpms to 400ish rpms. At 3499 miles, it violently idled at a stoplight for a couple seconds almost dying out. Clutch and brake were both pushed in at the time.
10/18 (Thurs) - stopped into Scion; told them what was wrong; they said to keep driving it until the appointment
10/23 (Tues) - scheduled appt day; I was in the dealership for 2 hours; they pulled code; they said they were going to order the new ECU; they said they would call me when it came in; they called me later in the day saying they didn't need a new ECU and that they just need to reflash; I don't have time to do the reflash until next Tues 10/30.
While I was in there, they said there was another FR-S that had been in their shop and it took a whole month to fix. It was when the TSB said to replace 6 (I think) items under the hood. They said Toyota cancelled that TSB, and released the current TSB which was to replace the ECU. However, reflashing the current ECU must be what they are trying first now.
