Separate names with a comma.
Nothing personal in this comment.....really there isn't. A really LOT of people come to forums like this and ask "Has this specific failure...
A mechanics "bore scope" might be helpful to inspect the filler neck.
You have a 13 year old car. Have the brakes ever had a FULL service during that time ? If not, you need to do that NOW.
A change of 40 degrees F is not much of a "cycle".
You really NEED to take it to a Toyota shop to finish the job properly. A proper bleed is necessary and that's tricky on a system with ABS and...
Like the simple fact that it does NOT run on the battery alone for more than about 5% of the time it is moving. And that ALL of the energy used...
You are assuming way too much from simple voltage readings. Especially when you don't know what load, if any, is present at the time of your...
What ELSE would you think it is a sign of ?? Loose or corroded cables maybe.
The same way that they keep from overcharging any similar battery. The charging system must FAIL in order to "overcharge".......which is a rather...
OEM. But right at the moment, the best answer might be: Whatever direct replacement that you can find. "Piece parts" for a LOT of things are...
Only SOME have mandatory inspections......very few, in fact. And I am a bit skeptical that a tire pressure monitor would really cause a...
Yes. Might want to double check that "any light" theory.
Not exactly. A "loaner" is not required if that is not stated in the warranty documents. Special "warranty" programs usually do not include that....
You went to a lot of trouble to "prove" what we already knew. :) But that's good experience. That tube probably is a "vent".......which on a...
Maybe not. Exactly how "new" is it ? Was it fully charged when new ?? (Probably don't know.) Have there been any other "episodes" of draining it...
YES. Definitely take it in. The "shock absorbing" members are behind the bumper and any damage is often hidden.
You should NOT count on using the original battery for actual driving again......ever. It likely will leave you stranded. Your new battery MUST...
No, not true. Unless the tender is bad, it should "float" the battery at about 13.2. V. If it never goes that high, it is good evidence that the...
I think you are right......on all counts. But it is impossible to know how much driving is needed to keep the battery charged because there are...
OR ask around of friends and neighbors for one you can borrow. If it starts up and seems to run OK with a jump, you should have already scouted...
