On our 2007 I drive the front of the car up on 2x10 boards about 2 feet long. Then slide the floor jack in, carefully center it on the big metal...
That is listed as an option on the RockAuto site. I would buy it from there rather than Amazon or Ebay to avoid a counterfeit part.
Legally it probably depends on the locale. In California we are supposed to place it in containers and take it to a toxic waste pickup site. I...
Some information on these cell caps on the AGM battery: 1. Removing the "tamper proof" caps. In the following video at around 4:10 they unscrew...
That really sounds like something spinning to me. There really aren't that many things it could be: 1. inverter pump 2. thermos pump (if stuck...
The thermos was an idea that didn't really pan out. It made a mess of the ICE cooling loop but didn't help very much with fuel savings.Toyota...
The first one is the thermos pump. It is physically located just above the fender liner on the front driver's side. It is a noisy pump and mine...
High voltage, non-conductive? At first I thought that this might be an AI hallucination but apparently it really is a thing for EV coolants....
That tap water might be very close to distilled water when it arrives at the city's water system, but it will be significantly chlorinated when it...
Our Accord had the "bad radiator cap" leak. There was no clue, coolant just disappeared with no sign of it anywhere. We looked everywhere, even...
Hmm. If our battery has been discharged a fair bit (like say from turning on the headlights for 10 minutes) it will start at 14.4 but comes down...
I'm not a fan of permanently attaching electronics and software of unknown origin and quality to the car's bus during normal operation. It is...
I inspected it with a mirror and flashlight a while back and there was no pink to be seen. As for keeping track of the temperature, Toyota...
I wonder if there is some small difference between the US and NZ versions of the car. The repair manual (or was it the wiring diagrams?) show...
That's a lot. I would suspect a leak. Have the radiator cap tested. One way they fail is that they open up at too low a pressure, but high...
I think I finally found a decent explanation of why 13.6V and 14.1V (and not, for instance, 13.2V and 14.5V). This is for an SLA battery, but the...
Put a mark with a Sharpie half way up the overflow tank in a location that is easy to see from the passenger side while looking over the fender....
I'm struggling to come up with a scenario where the higher boiling point in the brake fluid would matter in a Prius. Most of the braking is from...
The rule of thumb I have always seen for rubber coolant hoses in cars is to change them every 10 years. However that probably dates back to the...
So the first lasted 7 years. The second is at 12 years. If you have Techstream or a compliant OBD2 dongle and a copy of Dr. Prius it wouldn't...
