Separate names with a comma.
I had a better idea. Cut off the flap through the "hinge," then reattach it with six screws and two sheet-metal straps. To change the filter,...
Yes, and you'd also get dirty air chewing on internal parts of the engine.
If you use ramps on a not-too-steep hill with the car facing downhill, the car will end up nearer level than if you use the ramps on a level...
Why is the engine even running while the car is motionless? The engine normally stops when the car stops, unless it's cold, or the battery state...
Does the rattling and shaking at start-up occur consistently lately? If so, that's an ominous sign. (If it's only occasional, there's usually a...
The flow test results do "jump" around some, but shouldn't vary that widely (aside from actual increased blockage or a clean-out). For example,...
Many former sceptics evidently have become believers. However, I don't recall any of those success stories involving a Prius. No competitor has...
That's logical.
Were the small EGR ports in the intake manifold also cleaned? That's the most critical area---although a lot easier to remove and to unclog than...
What are those values? Did you mean 19 and 22 mΩ instead ? Big difference!
The 20+ kPa you're getting means your system is not clogged. That's not unusual, even for systems that have not had the cooler cleaned. My...
Rainwater coming off the rear of the roof and the sides of the hatch runs into the gutter-like channels under the sides of the hatch. At the...
Oil compainies (SOPUS specifically, and probably others) have denied that myth, and claim their "high mileage" stuff will not harm new engines.....
Check for vacuum leaks if a hose is off or cracked? Those symptoms may resemble those of a malfunctioning fuel vapor-recovery valve.
Let us know how that turns out. My guess is that it will be ok.
You don't have to have Techstream to read results of the car's automated EGR flow self-test. Any basic scanner will do, as long as it can access...
Oil consumption is still about as low as it was when I acquired my Prius ~125k ago. I suspect that's not as unusual as is commonly believed.
My understanding is that if the connector is unplugged, engine management programming recognizes that and adjusts timing or other variables to...
Mine used to do that occasionally, but mysteriously hasn't done it at all in several years now. (That's not counting the milder version that...
General-purpose 35 a-h AGM batteries work well with "a little rigging," don't present the risk of acid leakage that the cheap flooded lawnmower...
