Reading the manual again I believe you are correct. Page 93 of the manual says ---- Leave a low level of charge in the hybrid battery (traction...
The design of the car keeps the battery happy. That's why the SOC range maintained by the software is 25% to 85%. Of course if you are not going...
Your 100% "soc" (the full indicator icon) is actually 85% of a true full charge.
Proof(?) the recall does not include the PiP. This document gives all the details....
I mean the recall list. The dealer doesn't seem to be involved in generating the list. They could send a letter to PiP owners when it isn't necessary.
The recall lookup doesn't seem to be a "dealer thing". Toyota Safety Recall and Car Service Information
Checked my VIN, same negative results as others have reported. I'm thinking that the higher charge/discharge capability of the PiP battery may...
Something about keeping the SOC within its best continuous charge/discharge range as appropriate for HV operation. As I understand it HV...
If SOC is higher than 75% it will drop to about that level if the ICE comes on.
If the ICE stays off you use/lose charge. If the ICE comes on you gain charge, more if you stack, less if you don't.
If your trip is going to require the ICE at sometime later you would be better off to go into HV for that hill and the warm up to 130 degrees....
The EV is still TOU as of right now. Perhaps it will change later. In any case it is not a good deal (tiered or otherwise) for the PiP since we...
Could be... trying to communicate vs connection established... ??
None. Its a caution in the manual. I believe it may cause the FOB battery to run down faster as it may be trying to communicate with whatever. Of...
Its for convenience. I can't keep the fob in my pocket because then it will be within a few inches of a computer most of the day and that's not...
Great experiment! What is the current if the FOB is in the car, doors unlocked, after 20 minutes (ie after all circuits are in their steady...
I've done a full charge from Donner Summit to the Sacramento Valley. Its about 65 miles but there are some flat spots and uphill areas where I use...
No, I didn't say that. I said there is no convenient way to partially charge the battery so that going down a 1 mile hill will exactly fill the...
