My P0A080 fault code and battery rebuild

Well it's been two years since I started this thread and one year since I replace the repaired battery with a new Toyota pack.

I guess it won't come as a shock (pun intended) to anyone that I'm reporting zero issues with new battery. It will head off to college (600 miles r/t) in a few weeks so here's hope for many more months and miles of reliability.

 

56k miles on car and 6k on pack. As you can see by those numbers, it hasn't been driven very much (2 miles to school, 5 miles to part-time job) but it's about to get a lot more use which is a good thing!

 

After linking to this on yet another battery replacement thread, thought I should update it.

18 months after replacing the original 06 pack with a new Toyota pack sourced from Texashybridbatteries it's still doing fine battery wise (duh). Car only has about 65k miles (what the ????) and the few times I get to drive it, it still feels like new car.

I did have to replace the second (original recalled and replaced) inverter pump that failed while being driven by my wife (car will now be forever be classified as a POS by my wife's criteria*) but my son still thinks it's a great car; especially since he is now responsible for paying for gas and having to drive 300+ miles to college.
