Tombukt2, please don't take this personally, but I have an extremely difficult time reading your long posts when you don't use punctuation. Is...
Surprised no one has advised installing an oil catch can yet. OP lives in PA and the amount of oil/water/gas vapor an OCC eliminates from the...
Here's some EGR Monitor data that I posted in another thread: My 2012 Prius v with 46K miles shows an EGR Monitor test result of 15.74 kPa (max:...
My 2012 Prius v with 46K miles shows an EGR Monitor test result of 15.74 kPa (max: 655.35 kPa, min .64 kPa). The O2 Catalyst Bank 1 test result is...
230K without any oil burning sounds like a great accomplishment! How often are you cleaning your egr, are you running an oil catch can, what is...
Is there any empirical evidence that Toyota's "upgraded" Gen 3 intake manifold (plus software update) actually improves the intake manifold EGR...
I admire your work ethic, Mendel, and have greatly benefited from your findings with only 46K miles on our '12 v thus far. Please post 'before' pics!
I think cleaning the EGR cooler every 50K miles is onerous and excessive - about every 100K miles should be sufficient. But cleaning the intake...
Most of the Pruii cleaning anecdotes and photos i've seen indicate more significant carbon buildup in manifold egr channels leading to cylinders 1...
Could it be that as the EGR progressively gets plugged (from excess oil control ring wear, blowby, etc) the carbon does not foul all EGR ports at...
Since so many Prius Chat forumites embrace the need for an OCC (including yours truly), it's good to see this discussion/analysis on OCC designs...
I think moving the PCV to a location above the original engine block position and to a vertical orientation (so gravity helps keep it closed)...
I totally agree this would be a futile way to clean a clogged EGR system if used as an alternative cleaning method to the 75-100K mile service...
Since both the engine and throttle are computer controlled, you'd need to put the car into a mode that forced the engine to run, and the throttle...
With all the discussion about the need to completely remove the EGR and intake manifold for cleaning in Gen 3 engines, was wondering whether the...
