Separate names with a comma.
So why is it when you buy a hybrid, it becomes a debate as to whether you'll make back the "hybrid premium"? When I bought my Mustang, I spent...
I'm kinda surprised that Toyota doesn't have an oil change monitor. It seems like it would be extremely useful in a hybrid, particularly plug-in...
Unless you have a HUD, you have to do that anyway. Or unless you have a ratty old Chevette where there's a different harmonic rattle and shake at...
But once you get used to it, you find it's never blocked by the steering wheel spokes. .
Huh, I always thought the car stayed stationary while the wheels rotated the planet underneath me :-)
3-4" sounds like a lot but this is "normal". As wrprice said, the torque required to start the ICE causes a counter torque at the wheels. On my...
I tend to think that for somebody who doesn't drive much a relatively newer but higher-mileage used car may make sense, one that has more years...
Yes, one corner at a time. Jacking on an unsprung point has its advantages. You don't have to lift as far, and on some cars it unloads the ball...
I have air tools, but don't always use them. Tire rotation is a good time to check brakes, tie rods, ball joints, CV joints, etc. It's better to...
2014, gen3, not that I expect it would be much different. The other vehicle in the photos is a 1997 Mustang. .
I did my first DIY tire rotation on the Prius yesterday, and informally compared the spare tire to the full size before swapping them, like this:...
I ended up using the control arm mount because it was the best fit for my jack, though the rails would probably work very well for jack stands as...
So I just laid down in the driveway and crawled under the car with cell phone in hand, happy I live in the woods and the neighbors can't see :-)...
Hi Mendel, I'm about due for my first, non-Toyota-Care tire rotation so I searched for jack points and found this thread. If I'm not mistaken,...
I wish the prius had an "impending downhill" button so it would run down the battery in anticipation of a huge regen opportunity. The car doesn't...
Maybe U.S. degrees are different than British degrees? [emoji2]
I didn't know you could do that, but tried this yesterday and it worked! I'm hoping this is a way to nudge the car back "in phase", such that the...
Two thoughts to add to the above discussion: 1) Without pressing the EV button, the amount of electric power that is available before the ICE...
Ah, so it sounds similar to RCO's post, and you both have Gen4s, which I suppose is expected as this is a Gen4 forum :-) Perhaps the battery is...
For the first minute the ICE is on, it's trying to warm up the catalytic converter and minimize emissions, and will use the battery heavily during...
