Yes, rings get gunked up, oil burn starts. After some time the rings get frozen in place and grooves start to wear on the cylinder walls. There's...
At 400k miles your issue is wear not ring clogging and that is something no oil can fix except a heavier grade. And then it just hides it. I used...
The Prius has oil burning issues because the low tension rings get gunked up with carbon despite using high quality oil at 5k intervals. Keep in...
I did a quick look of your past postings and can't find a build thread, any link to it? Does that hook into an OBD2? That's pretty cool. I'd like...
Just a quick bump. Have been using Valvoline Restore & Protect 0w20 for ~10,000 miles / two oil changes. Oil consumed in our 2010 Gen 3 went from...
Yeah I know "AI" can be wrong, just didn't expect it to be that wrong lol. Thanks for info.
It's definitely draggy. You let off and it feels like the regen is cranked up like an EV, and when you press on the accel pedal it barely...
Also, Co-pilot came up with this, not sure if correct: 5th Digit = 6 Configuration: Hybrid (non‑plug‑in), w/o plug‑in Battery Type:...
Thanks, that teaches me how to fish, which is great. I wondered where you were pulling it up from.
Do you know if true for earlier model years as well? There is better selection of previous years as well.
Weird issue. When first starting out for the first drive of the day, when pressing the gas pedal, the vehicle requires significantly more pedal...
Finished my first 5,000 run with R&P. 140k -> 145k. Normally 1/2 to 3/4 oil burned in that time frame, noticed basically no oil loss and engine...
OK I can replace, as I have spares. But just to confirm, that is 2.8v with the 470Ω resistor across it, it's 3v without a load. My new ones are...
You'd hope. I have no idea where it is on the Prius but in an older vehicle, the PCV would clog and blow the RMS.
I have a Noco Genius 5, so will put it on that before putting it in the car. Thanks.
Key fob not detected message. 12v battery measures ~12.2v-12.3v resting after sitting for three or four days. It's ~10 years old. AGM. Tests ~50%...
I'm under the impression that it's the thermal cycling that is causing the HG issues. EGR blockage will increase crankcase pressure but typically...
Interesting thanks for the report. Although at 350,000 miles your issue may be wear itself and not sticky rings. That engine is about done lol....
Honestly most people would junk the car but what you've done is extremely environmentally sound and fiscally prudent. You really can't buy 80k...
Is coolant level normal? Has it dropped?
