New battery or reconditioned? Who replaced the battery and what was the cost?
Agreed. And given the $6000 quote for the a new traction battery I wouldn't be surprised if the brake work was overpriced too!
I let the engine warm for around 40 to 60 seconds every time I have a "cold" start, even in 90F + weather. It's not for the sake of the oil or the...
Yes this is the way to go. Just get yourself a time machine, go back to before Jan 2015 and monitor your oil more closely (or even monitor it at...
LOL, you think a lot like my wife Tanglefoot. :p
Yeah that's all good, but it doesn't check the ground connection. If you measure from the jump terminal to chassis (with the lights on) then it...
Check the 12V again at the front jumper terminal (to any good clean metal ground point). Try it with the headlights or parking lights on. This...
Ha, too cold is the one thing I never have to worry about. Too hot is much more a problem here. :)
Yep, it's not powering down the electronics cold that matters, it's powering down the ICE after it has only run for a few seconds that can...
Re the (sometimes) use of a small amount of fuel in "B" mode. I would assume it is the same reason that the engine often receives a small amount...
Yep. I sometimes use it when driving at slow speed down my driveway. Because "B" doesn't spin the engine at those low speeds then you get the...
Are you burning much oil? The wear doesn't look particularly bad, not considering the miles on them. It's really just the amount of deposits that...
I agree. It's a good idea to clean the fan anyway, but personally I don't think it will cure this error. Yeah ideally it shouldn't. However we...
People sometimes experience temporary changes in the reported MPG after the 12V battery has been disconnected and the ECUs reset. Has anything...
Ok, then it sounds like the new water pump was faulty (or a faulty install) and it has leaked badly. It mightn't be too bad, if you stopped as...
Can you do a quick visual check and see if the belt is still in place? There have been similar cases reported here where the belt wasn't...
First up congrats and well done. :) Both of those things you mentioned point to someone having previously changed the ATF on this Prius. It was...
Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking SageBrush. My battery has definitely lost some amp-hour capacity, however I seem to be fortunate in that...
Hi jonbru13. Was that in the inverter coolant reservoir or in the engine coolant expansion tank?
Yes, but even with my significantly degraded HV battery (refer to the second figure in my previous post to see roughly how mine now behaves), I am...
