First, why would you mess with your ECU unless you want to mod for F/I or N/A tuning? Second why would you use a dealer in that or any scenario? Also there are a few ECU tuning gurus in the Lotus community that can do far more than Toyota or Lotus can do. It shouldn't be a concern really.

I'm talking about having servicing performed at a toyota dealer for convenience factor, not modifications
As far as diagnostics, you can get most any of that you need via the OBDII port - just buy or borrow an OBDII reader, ScangaugeII, etc.

Personally, you'd be better off taking it to Soulspeed unless it was a warranty issue, in which case the Toyota dealer wouldn't be of service anyway.
