I have AutoEnginuity with the Toyota add-on and it is a good bang for the buck, $400. For Gen II, it works pretty well, pulling HV battery data,...
Have you replaced this battery yet? Even though you have a 2009, it only takes running these down to dead once or twice to the point that they...
No need to, but use an AirLift to bleed the system.
Great photo. Can't get away with that kind of thing here in the Rockies, 75 mph interstates with steep grades and rolling hills makes that a...
A good independent mechanic is your best bet, someone who depends on word-of-mouth and will make things right, rather than faceless corporations...
Check with the dealer first to make sure that they have an inverter coolant pump. Many are out of stock right now. See this for more details...
You are near Denver, yes? There are a few hybrid shops in your area, who could do the ReInvolt job for you or install a salvage battery, such as...
Hi Tom, Welcome to the murky world of hybrid repair at Toyota dealerships. All I can think of is that most dealership staff don't understand the...
Hi Tyler, An independent repair shop specializing in Toyota ought to be able to perform a pre-purchase inspection service for much less than a...

Have you tried running segments in EV mode with your AutoEnginuity, recording SoC, voltage, and current to see what is required? It's hard to see...
Take Mr. Frog's example. 2.5 miles at 30 mph takes 5 minutes. A 23% SoC drain of the traction battery corresponds to 1.5 amp hours (0.23*6.5),...
Just FYI, internal resistance values should be around 0.02 ohm. Are you sure it is 0.2?
Reliability on Gen III (2010+) is hard to establish. Gen II (2004-2009) has been very good, subject to a few problems: HID headlights, inverter...
Ah, I see what you are saying now vertex. You probably don't need to worry about cooling. Artric, at 350 mA, you definitely don't need to worry...
Welcome Artric! Charging to 245V on a Gen II (2004-2009) is probably what you need. This is normally the highest set point for an Enginer kit....
