Read up on performing a Piston Soak. I have a friend with almost 1 million miles on various Gen 2 and 3 Prii. He claims to get a big improvement...
P302 is a misfire on #2. Which valve is leaking down? It would be great to witness that leak-down test...:whistle: Did he video the air flow...
I'm pretty sure the mixture will always be in a safe,clean range. True, the combustion temps will be higher. That's the purpose of EGR to lower...
Thanks for the very informative post!(y) And how 'bout you with 335k on your Gen3! Has the head gasket failed at some point? If not, how often...
I did and toyota doesn't use EGR on Prii in Brazil. Do they get better or worse mpg? Who knows. Their gas uses a lot of ethanol. Do they have...
I always drive +5 the speed limit, which can be 80 mph true speed (not indicated speed), and I floor it as needed. I deal with tricky interstate...
Most definitely ,, No. EGR valve unplugged = No flow through that system. EGR partially plugged up happens unevenly and the #1 and #2 cylinders...
But this number totally depends on how you drive. Meaningless by itself. Compared to the exact same driving style a year ago might mean something.
Or just give it a try for a day or two. If you have an OBD adapter and free app you can clear the code after plugging it back in, and/or check the...
I don't know about these 'ratings', but I know owners here have spoken. It could be fixed. It's not Rocket Surgery. An owner shouldn't have to...
I highly doubt that would be the reason. Do the math.... Trickling a 12V up to a decent SOC would be X kW's, probably not even a kWh. This would...
1* What does 'properly maintained' mean to the typical owner? Some word of mouth extra procedures? 2* A 'Technical Manual'...? o_O Does the...
I'm pretty sure other manufacturers figured this out. The 12V is monitored, Load Shedding begins at X SOC. When necessary turn on the DC-DC to...
I believe you will get a CEL code with blocking the flow or unplugging the valve. Two different codes, possibly. The system is expecting a...
I would want a SW update so the 12V does not go dead. Is that too much to ask from a modern car. 1. Many EV's will keep the 12V charged when not...
Other than the issue of plugging in your 'modern' PHEV TWICE. I'm sure this takes way more than twice the time to simply plug in the J1772, just...
The module (s) controlling the 12V battery can not have updated SW added? Doubtful.
Are you serious? Can you name a good 'reason' to run the 12V down to nothing ? Can toyota? From here, that is UNEXCEPTABLE. And yet, it seems a...
That battery is toast. Lead Acid batteries chemically die when left discharged. Other chemistries can handle it, but not L/A. A modern car should...
Thanks for awakening an almost 10 year old thread! I recently bought a '19 L Eco. I'm at 240k miles on it. I put ~8k on it since buying it. It's a...
