I disconnect my battery almost every day and at first one bar blinks and after a few minutes at most I have a reading. My first guess is that...
Yes, the jumper cables run from a wrong battery that's in front of the pass seat to the back. (I forget what size battery, walmart sold it to me...
I believe that they all have the same cover design as my car. I purposely put "poor design" in quotations because it all depends on what the...

In case this helps, I have a (not prius exact, just a compact car 12V battery) in front of the passenger seat. The previous 12V, killed by my...

Just to clarify, the coolant looks like what I described under UV, not to the naked eye. To the naked eye it just looks like Toyota coolant that...
I need to put an oil pressure gauge on it before driving just to make sure that I don't spin bearings and make the issue even worse. (Although a...
Mine does use oil but I keep on top of it so it has never been below the low mark during my ownership, so the oil light did not come on because...
