As in 6.3 miles / kWh? That has got to be some really slow putzing around town.
I'm not well versed in the power a Gen3 drive motor (the one on the axles) makes, but it's definitely NOT 78kW. My Bolt is rated just south of...
Do you have oil consumption numbers for after the piston soak? A friend raves about the improvement he got on his old Prii doing that procedure....
Right, -1 on diameter and -1 on width for my WINTER TIRES. That's a common setup. I love the smoother ride when my Bolt is on the 16" Winter...
Lovely job. I have a cat. He's on a mission to rid the neighborhood of rodents, lizards, cicadas, and unfortunately birds. I wish cats were...
I totally agree! And if the average person, not you or I, of course, were to accidentally slide into a curb,, which season would that take place...
EGR Delete follow up: My '10 has ~2k miles with the EGR valve disconnected. 1400 miles on a +80 mph blast to the Rockies and back. Fuel economy...
not mine
The difference is so subtle. Couldn't you create the same difference with a wide sharpie? For 4 bucks?
Agreed. And if this service meant a long and happy life for a Gen3 engine why wouldn't this routine cleaning and servicing be in the Maintenance...
Right. It might be illegal to drive around with a check engine light on in some states. We have safety inspections on older cars are renewal time....
Could you share a few reasons why NOT to unplug the EGR Valve? I had a prius friend that has had many and goes to crazy high miles on his fleet of...
True. The light came on within seconds of when the engine fired up. I could check the codes with my Torquepro app everyday. Unlikely, will once a...
I agreed with you right up to 'Change the engine'. What? For another unknown used Prius engine? What's so bad about waiting for the first...
Seems like a strange reason for an electric water pump with a plastic impeller to fail. Its duty cycle is always changing RPM. I'm hoping the...
I agree. 20W is nothing. When I put my high end battery minder on a 12V it initially charges at 2A / 24W. Then once it has reached a higher...
I am not impressed with this engineering.:unsure: Keeping a 12V battery topped up does not take kW of power. I can't imagine a measurable 'Fuel...
It's just the opposite. It's implying that without an EGR system to get clogged in the first place, Prii in Brazil do not routinely have a head...
Off Topic.... Thanks for the link. I have now joined the EGR Delete Club this morning! I'm at 153k miles. I know I should clean the EGR system...
I'm on my 3rd Gen3 also! I have never done the dreaded EGR system cleaning. I know I should at 153k miles. But instead, for the meantime, I'm...
