Separate names with a comma.
It does. But they're like blinds in your house. Sunlight still comes through the blinds. The grille shutters also only close when you're driving....
Here is the hideous job I did back in October. It was my first attempt at blocking so I kinda did a hack job because I didn't really know what I...
Foam designed for half inch pipe. I need to redo the Prius with the dark foam and then post pics of it too...
Many Fusion Hybrid owners at the Fusion Hybrid Forum feel that Ford's marketing of the Fusion has been TERRIBLE!!!! They haven't bothered to show...
When you cut notches for the vertical pieces you can stick the foam between the slats and it's very solid. I posted pics above of how the dark...
Why didn't you slip the foam between the grille slats? Between the slats is much less visible like below [IMG] [IMG] Our Prius would have the foam...
I do the same usually, but she doesn't. In our Fusion the temp will go down to 60 before going to "Low". When I get into a cold car and need...
I discovered today that when my wife got 35 MPG instead of 45 MPG on Monday it was because she had the heat set at 78 the whole time. On Tuesday...
Yesterday the outside temp was about -15F when my wife drove home from work. Normally she can get 43-45 MPG on that trip in the winter, yesterday...
Based on the PSD animation I linked above, MG1 speed is based on ICE RPM. During these pulses, the ICE RPM and vehicle speed were constant. That's...
This would happen in 1 second increments? It's normal for it to come in & out, but not on and off every second like we experienced.
Great info, I was searching for data on when the Prius thermostat opens and here it is. Thanks Ken!!
Thank you. I don't drive the Prius often, but I asked my wife to pay attention and see if she notices it. Driving the Fusion this morning with...
But did the Lexus pulse the electric motor in and out?
Good idea, but no. SOC was high. The Gen 3 gets loud when charging too, but this is rare. And it doesn't pulsate when charging.
Interesting idea, but how does that explain why the surging went away at different RPMs? It's also been colder than the temp last night on this...
I agree. We love our Fusion Hybrid, but it hasn't been a smooth first year and a few months. Thus we decided to get rid of our first FFH that was...
I read lots of other threads about Gen 2 Prii surging (here and here) which seem to be similar to what we experienced last night. However, I...
Fascinating information. It's cool to see how much energy is lost to heat. The lower % of energy lost to heat from the electric motors shows why...
Our drop in MPG can be seen in the Fuelly tanks. Since our temps won't likely go above freezing again consistently until March I blocked all of...
