    I don't have problems when I post directly from an iPhone, not using the mobile app though, just Safari. The site works fine on a phone, btw.

    The one time I have seen problems is plugging my phone into pc, copying all the pics over, via Windows Explorer. That is if I just navigate the phone folders, copy and paste. However, if I just right-click the phone and choose "import pictures and videos", and then click on "more options" and make sure "rotate pictures on import" is ticked, they all come through correct orientation.

    I've found it easiest to also tick "delete files from the device after importing", on that same window. I was a bit nervous about that at first, but it a royal pain cleaning up your phone manually, especially iPhone. It squirrels away copies, and has multi folders.

    Anyway, not sure if this is relevant for you, if you're having pc and iPhone, just rambling. :)

    Ah.

    And of course, I just followed through, backed up my pics, and it DIDN'T rotated them right, dang. I'm gonna blame it on my Win10 upgrade. o_O

    See post # 2.

    If just after a service, with no other changes, service work could be suspect.

    Tire pressure, to thick a viscosity of motor oil.

    Not mentioned:
    Air leak...check the air filter housing and tubes?
    Fuel composition...change of brands, winter blend?
    Brake drag...another undiagnosed problem developed?

    Let us know what you find.

    find a local mechanic, service from dealers are dime a dozen, they make money by you bringing the car back in for service. I have a independent mechanic who services all my vehicle's. he's 1/3 the cost of from dealer pricing.

    I plan on doing my own work with what I can do. There is a major Hybrid mechanic by my bank that I drive by that seems knowledgeable. Advertises that all they do is Hybrids. So, if and when the day comes, I will go to them.
