Not true. Many people have been down that road and advice like yours has caused them untold grief. If the car only "starts" part of the time, it...
11.8 is not enough with no load; neither is 12.0. With no load the battery needs to be at least 12.4 and even that would indicate that it is...
If that is "distance to empty", then you should be VERY concerned.........about your bad habit of letting the tank get that low. ;) The displayed...
Do you STILL not have your problem fixed ?? Just like anything else, the 12 V battery can be intermittent.......and there is a low voltage...
Good plan. A similar result can be had with a nice long drive every couple of weeks or so. There are many other threads from owners in similar...
I am surprised that the car still starts. You are WAY past needing a new battery.
Relax. The sky is NOT falling......and 10% ethanol is NOT damaging any part of your car. It just simply is NOT. The car was designed to use E10....
What, are you saying that speed is not a factor in gas mileage ? If so, you are just plain wrong. And I think it is a "she". :)

That's a rather unique position to be in; some good and some bad. Given that, I agree with the others who said it appears to be a good deal. Only...
Damn. It was going pretty good........until you threw THAT into the mix. There is absolutely NO evidence that there is "anything wrong". You...
And it doesn't, at least initially, for a LOT of new owners. About 10 of us are trying to tell you why that IS but it just doesn't seem to be...
And just be sure that any company you deal with by "mail order" has good reviews from people you can actually communicate with today. Why? IF you...
Not that I don't trust the initial diagnosis..............(but maybe I don't)..............:rolleyes: How old is your 12 V battery ? If it is due...
Your expectations are unrealistic. But join the crowd. A really LOT of new hybrid owners fall into the same category. Weather alone won't make...
Not necessarily. First, with that kind of charger, you need to disconnect it when the current gets down to about 1/2 amp for a half hour or so....
