Alright so Toyota says the hybrid battery needs to be replaced and there's an engine coolant leak. That's it. ....I just had the battery replaced,...
I have a lot to learn! Didn't realize I needed a subscription for that as well, excited to learn more though.
Ha. Yeah sometimes I ask myself why I live here. The road salt kills our cars, too. Anyway...yes I'm at 170k-ish. If I can diagnose the issue...
Battery was free, but I payed for the tech to come service it. Yes, it's very cold right now..polar vortex or whatever they call it. What do you...
Hello everyone, an update.... Had the drained battery replaced with a new one; which is frustrating to say the least. The mechanic is stumped....
Correct. Today I had my Prius battery guy talk directly with my mechanic. He said basically the same thing you said - the battery has been worn...
Sorry, what I meant is there is a much higher voltage drop on some cells than others.
Alright friends, I was able to get a little more information and they have done quite a bit of troubleshooting. - They checked the MAF and...
They did tell me the voltage was about 140v.
Right. And as far as I know, my mechanic is not getting any of those codes. I will check again to be sure.
So basically I've screwed myself. Do I attempt to contact Best Hybrid to see if they will come out for a swap? I hate to run the risk of voiding...
Yes, I didn't think of that. I can attempt getting a warranty replacement, however, I'm skeptical they'll honor the repair based on the problems...
Alright, so I can take the risk of having them install a brand new battery; I'll be very clear with them if it doesn't fix the problem, I'm not...
I agree. They have been talking to a friend who works at a Toyota dealership, and this is ultimately what they narrowed it down to. What questions...
My concern is, if I install another reconditioned battery. When / where might it die again? What if I'm on a road trip in the middle of nowhere......
Well... my battery just called it quits. You guys were all right and I have learned from my mistake. Some lessons I just have to learn the hard...
It's not. They were implying once they get the engine running, it will run poorly due to the bad coil. I generally do trust my mechanic, most of...
Yeah. I just have to chalk it up to another lesson learned. The reason they want to repair it is because it's "really hard" for them to diagnose...
I agree. I told them I could replace that myself but they insisted they can't troubleshoot more until they fix the issue. That's why I'm...
Seriously? That is just pure highway robbery.
