Separate names with a comma.
I believe the Timken bearing is actually the same as the OEM one. It is one of those instances of this company bought that company but they...
I don't recall our 2007 dropping to pink bars going up the grapevine (I5 N of Los Angeles, long steep grade) or on any other long uphill grade. I...
On this car that could result in coolant being first pushed into the overflow tank and then out from there through the final overflow hose once...
The maximum charging current for an AGM is usually given as 0.3 C, on this battery if brand new 45*.3=13.5A. Somewhere or other Toyota says to...
A new new one or a new used one? Most new cars with gasoline engines these days are direct injection with CVT transmissions and it is a dubious...
Stop going to dealers! We call them "stealerships" for a reason. Find a reputable independent mechanic and see what they have to say. If they...
Just like a 1000% drug price reduction.
Other than the stupid front bumper covers, which have an incredibly fragile attachment to the fender. I see them driving around all the time with...
The pump is not self priming. If it isn't filled up with coolant it will run dry for a varying amount of time until the bubble of air works its...
OP is "Original Poster". That is, the person who made the first post in the thread, ie, you. OEM AGM 12V batteries for the Prius are over $200...
That sounds like some rotating part trying to start up and just twitching for a while before it gets going. One of the many water pumps perhaps?...
Verify that the A/C works. Car this age may have rotted out its evaporator or the valve built into it (in this model) might have failed. Either...
Me either - since on some cars at least the latch mechanism could squish that finger when it tries to restrain the loop of metal that it "thinks"...
Drill holes and use zip ties? I would be worried though that the zip ties might eventually cut through the relatively soft bumper cover material....
The piece shown in the picture looks like a grommet. Usually made of hard but slightly flexible plastic. They don't normally seal anything, they...
Another point - the two voltages that are seen, 13.6 and 14.1, don't really make sense. At least to me. Here: What is float charging and what...
Fair assumption - the car is pretty darn loud at highway speeds.
Also my "estimate the capacity" method ignores Peukert's law. Largely because I have never seen the technical spec sheet for the OEM battery and...
Observer in the hatch area while a helper outside gently hoses various parts of the car's exterior, starting low and working slowly upward. If it...
Back to what an IV curve is, here What Is the Charge Voltage of an AGM Battery? there is an image: AGM Battery Discharge Voltage Chart. It has...
