What did you do to ur Gen III Prius today????

HEY! That's pretty nifty! Where did you get that from?
And what are the two push buttons for?

 

From AliExpress. Search for CAREUD U912 for Toyota. The push buttons eject the passenger seat LOL

 

Anybody know if this will fit Toyota Prius 2013 without modifications to the spare slot?

 

It looks like it goes right into the spare slot, and I'm guessing that a cable plugs into the the OBDII port.

The readout appears to be in bars though? 2.7 bars equals 40 psi

No cable to OBDII. External sensors on the wheels. You can change the setting between psi or bar.

 

This is what the display looks like. I assume it should fit any spare slot.

 

Refuel after 1 click, DTE 613 mi

 

How many miles you get out of the tank that you filled up?

 

One killer mod. Keeps a scan gauge away.

 

Too early to say, just gassed up yesterday. Most likely a very optimistic reading. Still 100% bottom grill block unless car is at normal temp or driving out of town when 90 degrees or above. Goal is drive til 0 mi on DTE w/o refilling in between due to unexpected out of town road trips.

 

I’ll rephrase: how many miles on the tank you just put gas in for? Since the DTE is a “guess gauge”, it tracks off of the past to “predict” the future.

Get a lot of miles on the last tank?

 

Oh, you meant miles driven from the previous tank. Can't give a true number, haven't had the chance to drive from full tank to empty for months. I'd get down half a tank then unexpected road trip happens and it has to be filled to the top prior to road trip. Since redline went in, drove about 5,500 miles w/59.9 mpg overall. Next meet up engine coolant will be changed, it's not 120,000mi interval like people said here, it's 100,000 mi.

 

I’ll have the cooler cleaned if you want to pool jobs.

 

THANKS!

 

First time replying to this thread! Spent the last two weekends working on a few things for my 2015 II.

Last weekend I got my Clazzio covers installed. I ordered the black leather and they came really quickly as they were in stock! Definitely had sore fingers for a few days last week as many here have mentioned in the past.

Today I pulled the hubcaps off for the first time since I drove the car off the dealer lot brand new. Gave those black alloys a good cleaning (they needed it). Then made some center caps using the 1.5" electrical conduit knockout cap method that's discussed in a few places here. Put three or four coats of a black gloss paint & primer mix on them and then a coat of clear coat enamel. Made some slight adjustments as needed for them to fit and they popped right in! Took care of a couple of smaller things too like replacing tire valve caps, changing license plate frames, putting a new registration sticker on, and giving it a wash just in time for a decent cold front and rain tomorrow.

Overall I'm happy with the turnout! Photos below:

 

I just recently installed an electronic gear shifter from Stage 10 and I'm quite impressed with its looks, functionality and ergonomics. I got it for $240 and I think it's worth it.

 

I have the same one. I still need to put some tape or epoxy or something to stop it from spinning freely. How did you handle that?

I love it though, it has all of the functionality of the stock "shifter", and it removes the stick allowing better access to the HVAC controls. Plus it looks futurustic and fits the color scheme!

I don’t visit the dealership but when I do it’s for recalls or free stuff!
1. Got the recent “recall” taken care of even though “no remedy available”
2. EGR mod. Don’t know how but we’ll see if it made a difference in cold start

Everything was free including the rental

 

You know, I believe Toyota KNOWS the egr cooler clogs, but won't replace it.
I think they KNOW they put the EGR valve in the wrong place(at least I think so).
But they do everything else to try to ease the problem until the warranty expires.
Like any manufacturer...
