Weird that they wouldn't just replace the whole battery assembly if that's what was damaged. Or maybe it's too expensive.
I bet if you went for a short drive the SOC on the dash would drop faster than expected to catch up to the real change in SOC. It would be hard to...
That noise is pretty weird. The brake booster pump is on the left side, so it doesn't seem like it would be that. There is something that tests...
I'm down to almost exactly 6/32" on all four snow tires. Pressure is still good, 38-40PSI all around. We had a couple huge late season snow storms...
Usually everything is colder the next morning. Also, the only time I saw the SOC indicated by the car change significantly was, after a short...
[ATTACH] Free mulch. Costs me $0.10 in electricity per trip. I made two trips, and that probably would have been over $100 worth of mulch in bags.
Temperature definitely seems to be a factor. I don't think it's the car's measurement of temperature, but the effect of temperature on the voltage...
I got it down to 8% once. I ran out of EV charge just before merging onto the highway and climbing a big hill. The car can shorten the warm-up...
The hybrid assistant app shows the actual state of charge even in HV mode. It's usually between 10-14% in HV mode. If I'm careful, I can usually...
Right. My point was the yokohamas come with a lot more tread to start with, compared to the Dunflops. So that could explain some of the...
I think the Dunflops start at 8/32, but it looks like there are a couple versions out there there.
The Enasaves are surprisingly good for OEM tires. Not super long lasting, but efficient, quiet, and have adequate grip. Not that I've used...
The battery is plenty warm by the time it finishes charging. To answer the question of why? No one knows. It's one of many weird design choices...
It seems to do the same thing on Level 2 chargers. In addition, heat pump power output is limited during pre-conditioning (according to the...
How are tire shops supposed to deal with this? This whole system is so stupid.
There are EVSEs with wifi and scheduling capability built in. For example Chargepoint home chargers. That is the best (but most expensive) option...
I agree it's not terrible, and the engine started out at only 32 degrees F (not really that cold). That's just the best example I've recorded so...
I'll keep charging. At $0.11/kWh, gas would have to be less than about $1.25 a gallon for it to be cheaper, ignoring any maintenance specific to...
The car doesn't (and can't) always warm up the engine gently. If the battery is cold (around or below freezing, which usually only happens if you...
I avoid tire shops at all costs (unless I need tires). And even if it were free, fast, and convenient to have a shop do it, I'd rather do it...
