  3. mr_guy_mann replied to the thread Gen2 OBD2 app review.

    Autel has the AP2500 and the AP2500E. I do not see any difference between the two. So, the adcopy indicates that the "upgrade" is that...

  4. mr_guy_mann attached a file to the thread sudden head gasket failure - or something else?.

    I would use a capable scantool and see what the system does during a cold startup. Normally the ECM adjusts the 3-way coolant valve and...

  6. mr_guy_mann replied to the thread Yellow TPMS Light should be turned on, but not?.

  11. mr_guy_mann replied to the thread Speedometer & Rear cam nonfunctional, fast hybrid battery charge/discharge, check engine light on.

  12. mr_guy_mann replied to the thread Replacing inverter coolant pump -- anything cheaper but similar in quality to OEM?.

    Yep, AFAIK the pricier part was updated. The cheaper part was the "original" that failed more often. I got the $140 one 60k ago and...
