Where did “without” come from? I am talking about the B mode. I said that the fuel economy was a lot worse in the B mode than in the D mode...
I thought his whole point was that the engine never revolved in the B mode with the ignition cut off. Yes, I see much worse fuel economy in the B...
It is not consuming gasoline. It is decreasing the electricity regeneration by inducing a drag through compression (pumping losses). In other...
So, I am repeating my question: If the engine is not revolving without combustion in the B mode, why is the fuel economy much, much worse in the B...

I will copy and my paste my post about the original Valvoline Premium Blue Restore (not off-the-shelf Restore & Protect) from another forum here....
Hype or not, the original Valvoline Premium Blue Restore is an entirely different beast with its base oil containing a huge amount of polyol ester...
That TGMO 0W-8 is made by ExxonMobil! Plant code: 102 Date of manufacture: 2024/June (F = 06)/07. Formulation/revision number: 6633 A great...
Wow, that is a huge stash! Only the ExxonMobil-made TGMO has POE. I don’t know who makes TGMO 0W-8. Yes, it will be mostly Group III, but...
Mine is rated 54 mpg, but it is very easy to get over 60 mpg by being a little easy on the pedals. With hypermiling, which is being even easier on...
I would never use the Red Line oil, which has a high amount of polyol ester (POE) in the base oil. That is because it almost always results in...

Well, I average 70 mpg on mine if not more; so, 50 mpg is a nightmare for me.
Yeah, if it hasn’t been upgraded to the Toyota/Lexus safety system 3.0 yet, don’t buy it. That is because that is the most important feature of a...
SE is very hard to find; so, you won’t get much discount. XSE Premium is way overstocked, and you could get a several-thousand-dollar dealer discount.
Exactly! And the dealer technian left my tire valve-stem caps loose and didn't reset my maintenance reminder. I don't even want to think about...
I and @Roy Peterson both have an AGM battery in my Gen 4 Prius Prime and in his Gen 5 Prius Prime, and we have been observing much better...
The low-battery warning, which is not a light but a written message on the display, is for the 3-V lithium-metal coin cell for the smart-key...
I don't know, but I would upgrade to an AGM battery when I needed an out-of-warranty replacement. The reason why OEMs use flooded-cell batteries...
Obviously, Toyota themselves do not make any lubricants. For example, TGMO in the US is made by ExxonMobil. E-transaxle fluid TE is made by...
