Its under temp of batt tb1, 2 and 3. Scroll down to T
Your inverters and coolant are under the hood and won't necessarily track with cabin temp that sees a greenhouse effect. You can monitor left,...
It doesn't really matter. It will be at ambient on a cold start plus a little heat soak if fired up again soon after shutdown. As soon as you...
My inverter coolant tends to run 25-35f over ambient in the summer. When you're running a/c the airflow from the fans help keep the temp stable...
2011 with 113k. I've been running 15k oil change intervals since I bought it at 42k. It doesn't use oil. It's not babied either.
I do drive it and I don't worry about it. 90% of my braking is regen. The question was posed about increasing the regen rate and my theory as to...
Play with the Torque app and you see regen rates and battery SOC. It will help understand what the car does when. It really helps dial in driving.
Yes, but at what point do you use it up prematurely? At some point excess charging and heat is going to cost more then not. If that point is...
You're overly minimizing the effect of regen on Temps. Have you ever watched inverter and battery temps spike? They go up fast, and the hybrid...
No one has mentioned the excess heat. If regen were turned up even more that also means more thermal stress on the battery and inverters etc......
Did that and coolant when I bought the car last year with 42k. Hopefully good for a while.
Aloha Airlines had a 737 roof rip right open in the 90s. All the island hopping and short cycles stressed it more then the engineers originally...
112k on a 2011. Cleaned the EGR and intake last month when it got plugs. They were dirty, but by no means plugged.
None that I'm aware of. That would be too easy and actual data would prevent people from screaming about the headgasket all the time. Knowing...
It's really no thicker then what used to be the norm for fwd final drive units. 75W-90 gear oil, or something like Redline MTL which is a little...
Given the redesign of the EGR system for the 4th gen it could certainly be that EGR was a big factor in the failures. That is by no means a...
Why does there have to be one smoking gun cause for head gasket failure? EGR issues and heat cycling could certainly both be contributing factors...
Shocked that no one has said anything about trip length. It's hard to work a Prius hard enough for any length of time to fully warm the vehicle...
Many more heat cycles expanding and contracting. Constant temps are better then running cooler, then heating up, cooling down etc...
Oh?
