Separate names with a comma.
Yikes! X2 for the pictures. The only thing my wife and I have noticed is the softex on the DS arm rest getting stretched out/wrinkled because we...
That might be the case, but that would imply the 3rd gen isn't doing what the 2nd gen did according to peef. If someone had some data showing the...
According to peef (linked in post #8), the 2nd gen Prius will kick on MG2 to spin up the engine and avoid over-speeding MG1 around 50mph. This...
Can you get a video of it doing this?
A retrofit would be awesome. The mounting shouldn't be too bad if it's smaller. Someone will just need to create some adapters to mount to a gen2...
A quick search indicates MG1 has a maximum speed of ~10k rpm. Can you check MG1/MG2 RPM from ~55mph to ~65mph? According to peef, the gen ii Prius...
That's pretty normal. I quick look at a 2013 SUV with similar mileage shows similar depreciation.
That's right, I forget the service schedule is part of the owner's manuals. The advice I'm remembering is to play it safe and take the trans fluid...
Good catch, I'm flipping the MGs around. According to peef, the gen-ii will use MG2 to spin up the engine at 52mph to protect MG1 as long as the...
I think the engine has a spark/fuel cut to prevent that, but MG2 may be spinning too fast. Not by a whole lot though. If the car can do ~64mph (on...
I'm wondering if the same danger applies though... If it did, I would think Toyota would kick on the engine if you went above 62mph. They could...
I was doing some N coasting, mostly because it's a pain to try to keep regen at 0, and I noticed while the engine will start idling in drive at...
Power split device and factory service manual.
It's not lifetime, at least if you want the PSD to last as long as the rest of the car. The FSM has a long'ish time period before the first...
It's 2 years/24k miles for the fuel filler cap. http://www3.epa.gov/obd/pubs/420f09048.pdf
It's higher per mile, but it's actually lower (in g/bhp-hr) when you compare how much work the engines in either vehicles are doing.
Compliance depends on region, but heavy duty diesel engines have had to meet similar if not more stringent (per bhp-hr) emissions standards....
In that case, why wouldn't strain relief resolve that issue?
Sometimes the dealer has pretty competitive prices. On one hand, if they know you need a car, they're, um, obnoxious. On the other hand, if you...
Yeah
