Is the new TSB called TSB-0068-08 or EG8025 ? I heard about the TSB-0068-08
in Toyota forum site.

Go to Toyotanation.com - they list several new TSBs, some for the V6 I think.

Has anyone had the TSB 0068-08 installed? Does it correct the constant downshifting on slightest upgrade? I have had the previous TSB (Aug 07) installed and this was an improvement but car still downshifts on slightest upgrade. Am considering having the new one installed. Let me know if it works, OK?

The "constant" downshifting is to improve or optimize FE and absent CARB & EPA approval (like hell freezing over) a TSB will not, cannot, improve on this matter significantly. The "object" to the constant down (and UP) shifting is to keep the engine right on the cusp, FE "sweet-spot", of just barely having enough torque for the current road/terrain conditions and speed.
Only a conversion to a true CVT with mostly transparent, non-obvious, up/down "shifting" will improve upon this matter.

No other Camry that I have ever owned had this very aggravating problem of constantly downshiftinf/upshifting on the slightest upgrade which is so very noticeable. I believe that the engine burns more fuel when it is turning more rpm (as it does in a lower gear), so my 07 Camry does not get the FE of my 2003 or 2000 Camry cars (still in our family). Though my other Camrys downshit/upshift when neccessary, the operation is much smoother and hardly noticeable. If anybody gets the new TSB installed, I hope you will let us know of any improvements.

I have a 2007 4-cyl Camry LE that until two days ago had practically all the problems mentioned in this forum; very sluggish down-shifting on acceleration; constant shifting between gears on the slightest uphill; unwanted down-shift upon applying brakes at cruising speed on slight downhill; and some related issues. I mentioned this (again) to the dealership at the 15000 mile service and they found and installed TSB 0068-08 (which has the OP CODE [whatever that is] of EG8025; Google "EG8025" and the actual Toyota bulletin as a pdf should appear on the first search page, showing a date of May 21, 2008). Now the Camry is like a new machine that responds like you expect. I've found myself saying "Yeah Baby" to my car practically every time I hit the gas. Now it drives like the MT Car of the Year. Previously my answer to "How do you like your car?" was as long as this forum. Now it is an unqualified "love it." I take a road trip this weekend on the interstate which will give the down-shift-on-slightest-uphill problem a better test than commuting to work has (although it seems solved on hills where it has always exhibit itself before) -- and if there's any change in my new-found optimism I'll report back next week.

Hi All:
As you know from my postings in the past, I am on the road most of the time with regards to my career. I own a 2007 Camry XLE V6 vehicle that has none of the problems that I have seen on these boards. (That does not mean that the problems do not exist, rather, it simply means that for some reason my vehicle doesn not have these issues.)
Recently, I had the opportunity to speak to a person who also owns a 2007 Camry XLE V6. His vehicle has the transmission "flare issue!"
NOTE: ----- According to this Camry owner, the "flare issue" disappeared after he had the throttle body cleaned! ------ Question: ----- Could a malfunctioning throttle body, on a "drive by wire vehicle" be causing the "transmission shift flare?"
Best regards.
Dwayne
