Naysayers in this thread were quick to jump in after a quick AI search to say GTL is used in very few oils. Hint: AI is very bad at answering...
Do it through your insurance. They give different prices to individuals vs. the insurance company. By the way, this calibration takes hours, as...
Moreover, especially with a Gen 4/Gen 5 Prius, once the lead–acid battery is fully drained, a jump start is not sufficient to restore it to a...
Get the BM2 battery monitor from Amazon to check the voltage history on your phone. Also, since you had a few full drains, you have capacity...
0W-16 oil, computer-controlled hybrid drivetrain that also uses the electric motor as the motive force—there is little need to warm up in frigid...
Just to reiterate, GTL base oils are second only to those made from Group IV (PAO) and Group V (POE, AN, etc.) base stocks in base-oil quality....
I average about 764 miles (1,230 km) per tank in my 2021 Prius Prime Limited, so about 67 mpg times 11.4 US gal.
This is the best battery for Gen 4 and Gen 5. Currently $138 on Amazon. It is very easy to replace it yourself. All you need is a 10-mm socket and...

I was worried about this. Iran did manage to hit the Shell Pearl GTL base-oil facility in Qatar, which is one of Shell’s crown jewels and has been...
I don’t think so. Try it for yourself after a fill-up. DTE is not dynamically updated as far as I know. By the way, I am the DTE record holder on...
I believe calibration happens only once (a few seconds after you drive) after a fill-up. It is not dynamic like the electric-range estimate.
