The statement that SAE 0W-8, SAE 0W-16, and SAE 0W-20 are very close is absolutely false. SAE 0W-20 is very close to SAE 5W-30, yes, but ILSAC...
Correct, in fact, since I had the free two-year maintenance, my odometer was at around 9,000 miles in the first oil change at the one-year...
Meh, it is still a minority opinion. Yes, during break-in, there will be a lot of wear particles, but that will keep happening until 10,000 miles...
It is more than 20 mA in Gen 4 and Gen 5, which are a lot more advanced than your Gen 3. These are my observations in my 2021 Prius Prime...
It was very clear to me what you said. ;)
What I meant was that use a smart charger/maintainer, not a trickle charger.
I am not sure what you used. The entire point of BM2 is that it stays permanently hooked up to the 12-V battery so that you record the voltage to...
I don't know which one you used, but BM2 draws a small current of about 2 mA. [IMG]

Welcome back! Congratulations on your 2024 Prius PHEV! This is very interesting. Our @bwilson4web had a Gen 1, then a Gen 3, and then briefly a...
Parasitic drain is of course variable, which is normal. There is nothing wrong with that. You will see it if you have a battery monitor. It can be...
If you ever get a battery monitor or something as simple as a cigarette-lighter voltmeter, which tracks the battery voltage closely, what you will...
I wouldn't bother much with the current, as you can guestimate it, but it could be fun, albeit more obsession.
The BM2 Bluetooth battery monitor is pretty good, and mine turned out to be perfectly accurate to 0.01 V.
I don't know how accurate your measurement was and if the battery was rested for at least 16 hours, but if both are true, 12.50 V is 87.5% for a...
Your Gen 3 does not have a BMS. The SOC the Gen 4 and Gen 5 BMS keeps the 12-V battery at is actually as low as 75%, which is 12.35 V for a...
True, but probably a very small amount. If you can get an estimate within 0.3 gallons, it should be good enough.
The official fuel tank capacity for Gen 4 PHEV and Gen 5 PHEV are 43 L (11.4 gal) and 40 L (10.6 gal), respectively. I am not sure if DTE shows...
Again, Gen 4 and Gen 5 are identical cars for most practical purposes, and I get over 100 miles (well over 100 miles with my driving style) after...
How much fuel did you have left? Did the car still run?
