Separate names with a comma.
So the EGR clog is pushing up the temps, roasting the valve seals, coking the piston rings, and creating head gasket issues? At some points we...
The question is, why? Why these specific years of Prius? My 2006 Tundra has 210k on it and it does not burn, nor leak, hardly any oil.
No I meant a top end oil of some sort. Essentially getting some sort of conditioner on the top side of the valves and letting it sit. Either...
I know how valve seals works and why their failure burns oil. To be fair, that's the entire point of seal swell in high mileage oils. And,...
Any ability to squirt some sort of seal softner/conditioner directly on the valve seals, let it sit, and see if the oil consumption decreases...
Bump?
Personally, if you plan on keeping the car for awhile, I think it'd be worth going for the Priusoffroad - Prius Offroad, Lift Kits kits. The Tema...
I know there are few people on this board who replaced their valve seals in an attempt to cure oil burning issues. My 2010 Prius burns oil like...
Such a bummer that this wasn't a hardcore oil burner before the oil, or that it was utilized prior to the valve seals being replaced. I'm half...
I think the tough thing here is because you didn't have oil consumption prior to using VPBR, you won't be able to evaluate if it solves the issues...
Any follow up on this? I called a local "Cummins" service shop and they didn't have it. Ryder Truck Center didn't have it either as the "Fleet"...
I'm going to bring this back from the dead, mostly because in the 8 years since this thread was posted, we've learned a lot about the shortcomings...
I can get a AC Delco Group 51 AGM from Amazon for $175 shipped. When I say cheaper, I mean, under $125 USD. Which I don't think will happen....
You seen the prices of D Batteries lately?
Are there any cheaper AGM batteries that will fit into the 3rd Gen Prius battery spot? I've modded plenty of battery hold downs to fit more ideal...
Quantum Solienoid (which make an identical looking thing, also for the Prius as well as tons of other models) has posted some Dyno plots with...
In other news, I'm intrigued by "Red Bullet" solenoid, and stumbled upon the more expensive "Quantum Solenoid" that is quite popular among Prius...
Thanks guys. It sounds like aside from "Power Mode" there really isn't any special mode or setting which makes the Prius more sporting. It's...
I've read there are three criteria important to batteries for the Prius, well maybe four if you count it's small size: AGM - because inside the...
So to clarify - the motor will rev to redline under full throttle? Red Bullet eh? That's a rabbit hole. I've heard people mention that turning...
