Two problems since new. At about 2000 miles I got a warning light and car wouldn't run right---posted on this board somewhere. Disconnected...
GM's already got an H2----Hummer that is----probably gets similar fuel economy to the new hydrogen/fuelcell cars they envision. I agree---on...
If you are talking about the dome light (not the reading lights), the lens is held in by two "claws". They are on either side of the switch side...
Europe pays more for fuel because of tax structure. Higher penalty on gasoline then diesel---hence a lot of european's drive diesels. BTW...
After a cold start (with glow plug assist) the engine should be able to be restarted warm without glow plugs. Also to get a smooth start (such as...
We should all be glad that General Motors is not interested in Hybrid vehicles. The early '80's 5.7 Oldsmobile diesel almost singlehandedly...
If your ultimate goal is fuel economy, drum brakes are the way to go. Disk brakes tend to have a little more drag then a drum brake has. The...
At least the Aero could race you in the HOV lanes with four people inside. It would be fun to watch all the luggage fall off so therefore...
It's really hard to find out what measures the fuel level in the '04 Prius. It looks like it may be a regular float type gauge. The test of the...
If you are going to remove the plastic trim rings on the wheels on the '04 Prius, the sooner you do it, the better. The alloy wheel is painted...
I would take it to the dealer to replace---if the bulb is bad, it should be under warranty. Otherwise the maintenance manual states that the LH...

Thanks for posting that article. It really hit the mark with me. I have long felt that we were on the path to a really usable plug in EV with...
Short trips kill the fuel economy---don't expect high numbers with 5 to 8 mile commutes. On the classic never use the A/C max setting. As has...
Oops! I said MG2 is the generator that charges the battery when the engine is running----Should have said MG1. MG2 is the main drive motor while...
The battery should never reach a full state of charge in the Prius. The reason for this is that if the generator (MG2) in the Hybrid system fully...
When engine start is called for, the control system dry cranks the engine before fuel injection occurs. You are most likely hearing the backlash...
I hate to say it but at one time I owned a new 1994 H1 Hummer wagon. So, you can't say someone is never going to go from a Hummer to a Prius. I...
If the "black box" you were looking at was in the rear near the aux (12volt) battery, this is the brake control power supply. It is a capacitor...
One of the parts used for underfloor airflow management that can be seen on both the '04 and the Classic are the small black plastic spoilers...
