I'm leaning toward the idea that the battery is low but I'll have her get the battery tested. There was a recent similar failure but a jump start...
Battery is fairly new...maybe 5 mos? AutoZone or something like that AGM for around 240 bucks. It's in Maine so I know that's cold up there. Also,...
My 2008 has needed a couple of jump starts recently. Also, now the car is stuck in neutral, not starting, and won't release the key fob. Lights...
I got this Gen 3 with the horrific knocking/clanking sound of the input damper in complete failure mode. But, I'm still in the learning process...
I agree that rubber hoses are probably not a good element if used in EGR pipe (although downstream of EGR cooler would not be as hot as...
I ordered that one and am planning to install in the PCV tube. But, this Gen 3 had very little contamination in the intake manifold lower area....
I was testing with piston at TDC on compression. I also believe it should work at and point within the next 180 degrees of crankshaft rotation...
I got the new Toyota tensioner but it didn't come with the metal shim/gasket. I'm thinking of using the old one and maybe a small amount of RTV on...
My Harbor Freight leak down tester doesn't seem to be working so I have improvised a test with my compressor. I've put my 3 gallon air tank at 100...
Yeah, one was all there but still bent. It had come out of its slot and is partly visible in one of the pics I posted. The small plastic spacer...

I've actually done the head gasket in this car before with the engine in place. It would be a bit easier engine out, however. The prior operation...
I'm thinking damper failure was due to misfire neglected for awhile. I'm doing a leak down test (hopefully today) to try to determine head gasket...
Got the pieces out and here's a pic. One of four springs was pretty much intact but the other three are broken. I'd say I've recovered the...
Unfortunately, or fortunately, it was two bolts...one obvious and the other one hidden below an HV cable to the invertor.
Well, then I'll quit calling it that.
Feeling moderately stupid as I'd left one of the top opposite facing bolts in and even one lower bolt that I'd left finger tight pending the...
I think of the power train as ICE, inverter/generator, transaxle, from passenger to driver's side. I've gotten the ICE out from the top before,...
I am removing the ICE and have disconnected wiring and plumbing and passenger engine mount. I've tried pulling laterally on the engine block but...
Thanks for the helpful hints there. I wasn't sure how to release the tensioner once I got it in place. I have plugs out but already but was only...
