Putting the car in neutral and coming to a long, gradual stop is the best way to polish any oxidation off of the wheel brake friction surfaces as the...
Is it just as you're close to reaching a stop? Mine does that too. I think it has to do with the digital control of the wheel brakes. As we near a...
If you have to drive a ute, that's a great one! There's some hi-hy discussion in the general Toyota hybrid section here on Priuschat: Toyota...
I've noticed plenty of cord clearance just to the left or right of the latch for the console lid. I like having the connector inside. That way,...
I think they're really incredible tires. They're quiet, long-wearing, handle very nicely and have amazing winter traction. I haven't noticed any...
No--since the fuel bladder is flexible and changes volume with factors such as temperature, there's no way for the car to get an accurate measurement...
I've only added water once but I put it on the smart charger about twice a month. I don't think it has quite the same draw-down resistance as a new...
I agree--the only reason I go to the dealer service department is for warranty/recall work. I haven't brought it in for the inverter coolant pump or...
I think this only applies when the climate control is in "auto" mode. Then the auto control often starts out with the system in "recirc" mode to...

My theory is that it is displaying a notice at 5 degrees above freezing to warn about the possibility of icy roads, although the air temperature...
I haven't noticed any measurable drop in MPG from switching from the Integrities to the H727's. They are on the LRR tire list and I believe...
I run the Hankook H727's as well and can attest to their amazing winter performance. They're great all-year tires--no switching needed. With these...
I've been using synthetic blend the last few changes. They had a good special on it at the auto parts store (Castrol). I'm pretty sure the engine...
The Amazon battery is the same Optima yellow top included in the kit from elearnaid, but it would require different cables to use (which are included...
You might consider carrying a pair of cable tire chains with you. They're a bit of a pain but strapping them onto the front tires should give you...
Yes, using the first click on the pump handle is helpful for getting a good fill. It's a small tank--it doesn't take very long. I always fill up...
There are not many options for replacements--it's not a common size/terminal type. The only ones I know of are the OEM, Optima and Odyssey. The...
It's a button to turn off the smart key system, which uses some current from the 12-v battery while in its normal, stand-by mode. The button is...
uart--you can try it without removing it but I think it would be easier in the long run to remove it. You have to look practically straight down...
