Just now got back from having my transaxle and torque converter replaced, due to not being able to fix the shift slipping (flare) issue with the TSB TC007-07 reflash of the TCU.
My car had 8,570 miles on it.
The Toyota Part Number for the transaxle assembly is "30510-33530 TRANSAXLE ASSY, A"

My dealer, Butler Toyota of Indianapolis, Indiana has been as helpful as I could ask for with this.
They told me if I have any more trouble, to not hesitate to bring it back.

I hope this issue is resolved, but only time will tell.

I'll report back over time

Camry07Indy,

Any more shift flares since the tranny was replaced?

While I know that this question is NOT directed at me...just wanted to add that I'm coming up on almost 20K miles on my "new" tranny and there's been not a single slip of the gears!

Nothing at all like before.
It's been working pretty good so far.
I do notice that sometimes when it's hot and the air conditioner is running, it sometimes give me a shift that lacks firmness.
Like a conventional transmission does when it's cold and has high mileage.
I'm convinced there are still issues with the ECU/TCU hardware or firmware that need to be resolved though, because there are times when it shifts so firm and with confidence, and other times it doesn't.
