There are no clutches in any of the Prius cars.
I didn't see any mention of an airbag sensor for the C. Only thing I saw for the C was a reflash for the IPM and ECU.
OK. Because you just don't seem to get it...I'll spell it out for you. In a normal car... The battery is used to stat the engine, putting a large...
The air is free. Compressing it is not. Someone has to pay for the compressor and the energy to run it... ;-)
All Toyota's have a brake fluid change recommended interval of three years on the original fluid, and every two years thereafter.
The wife got tired of the "clunkyness" in the C (Aqua), so I bought her a Lexus NX300h F-Sport. That is a very ironed-out HSD, but cost three...
Nothing is "horribly" wrong. 0W is synthetic, and is better for the engine than a non-synthetic 5W or 10W if you're using the Toyota recommended...
No, it won't. The 12v battery has no heavy drain on it at any time in it's life. All it does is power up the system. Unlike a conventional battery...
No harm to the batteries, but not good for the engine. Driving like that, the oil temp never gets hot enough to evaporate moisture and...
If someone's sold on a hybrid, but needs quick acceleration, there's always the McLaren P1, Porsche 918, or Ferrari F70. Sub-three seconds from...
Yes. The older one was something like 35.4 km/l. Then the Honda Fit eclipsed it with a JC08 rating of 36, taking the hybrid fuel mileage crown....
This does happen. Find out where the oil is going. Check for leaks, of course. Barring that, it's either going through the PCV system, or past the...
The 12v battery in the Prius is not meant to "run" anything. It simply powers the car on and off. In fact, diagnostics for the DC/DC converter...
The hi-octane stuff is 100 RON, which I've read is somewhere around 97 R+M/2. Not sure what the regular rating is, but that's what Toyota says to use.
Ecopia 422 or EP 20.
NZ 91 is 91 RON, which is probably very close to 87 R+M/2. It's zero alcohol. The reason for the manufacturer warning is because you shouldn't be...
At 62,000 km, put on Ecopia EP20's. Same fuel mileage, but without the spine smashing ride the OEM Dunlop's had. Night and day.
In short, if it's not leaking, where did it go? Answer: It didn't go anywhere. Engine oil can "disappear" because it gets burned in combustion,...
Oh...I don't know. Every 3,000 means I would have changed it about 15 times to the tune of over $300 vs. having changed it once with a Toyota...
I own a repair shop (hybrid specialty for Toyota and Honda). I'm also a member of iATN, and SAE. My oldest son is a tech for Lexus of Kanagawa...
