Separate names with a comma.
They have also eliminated the PHEV charge mode in 2026. Could it be oil-related? The elimination of the oil-level sensor is probably cost cutting...
Why not 5W-30. LOL
Ha, the car is being downgraded every year ever since Gen 4. It sucks that they have even got rid of the charge mode now.
As long as the oil pressure is above a specified minimum, it is good. That minimum is typically much lower than what you would see even with 0W-8....
Ha ha ha… My reputation follows me. I don’t post on BITOG anymore. No, I am physicist, but I was an oil enthusiast. Mobil 1 is not a company. It...
I doubt that. You could measure the oil pressure in a 2025 and in a 20026 with 0W-8 and compare them. Since the oil pressure is proportional to...
Same thing happened with Gen 4, switching from 0W-20 to 0W-16 mid-generation. 2020 was the first to switch. I doubt anything changed with the car...
Those specs are quite different indeed. If @Probity can check the four-digit formulation code for Mobil 1 0W-16 SP in Canada, we can compare it to...
The only reason is that Canada uses liters vs. quarts in the US. The same oil is sold in both countries otherwise. By the way, the four-digit...
I doubt it. I doubt the solar panel turns on the main DC–DC converter to aggressively charge the 12-V battery at around 14.1 V. In the Gen 4...
Yes, both.
Not sure what exactly you are asking.
Of course not, as that would eventually brick the car and ruin the traction battery. Both.
As I said in my previous post, if he gets the BM2 battery monitor, he will find out of it is working or not, as the solar panel will start...
Get a BM2 battery monitor to have a clue on what is going on.
The Gen 5 Prius is basically the Gen 4 Prius mid-cycle refresh. ;) Gen 6 Prius should be a complete redesign. Gen 5 is faster, more...
Check that the traction battery has at least 5% SOC. It won’t work with 0% SOC or less. Make sure that the solar panel is entirely clean and no...
You are drinking the Tesla Kool-Aid. There are a lot more and bigger players now. I hope you are not claiming that Tesla is belter in AI than...
And you trust Tesla’s EPA fuel-efficiency numbers, which have been reported to be false all over the news by many news sources. LOL Their numbers...
Tesla can never be Level 4 because it lacks lidar and radar. There are Level 4 cars already (Waymo), even though they are restricted to lower...
