Let it charge up for a couple minutes, and then start the dead car. You can leave it in Park and just hit the gas, it’ll rev up a bit just hold it there while someone hooks up the cables to the dead car. Since the Prius’ hybrid system likes to shut off the motor, this isn’t good since you’ll be discharging the 12V. Now hook up your cables to the Prius battery and start the Prius. Now you should be able to access the clip on the positive terminal cover. You’ll need a 10mm socket wrench to unbolt the brake controller bracket and slide the whole unit out of the way.

I may also look into re-upholstering my door cards (or at least touching them up) as well, since I need to lubricate the manual windows as well. I will be re-upholstering the seats sometime late spring or early summer. The exhaust upgrades will happen sometime after I get a job, I’m not sure if it will happen before or after the brake master cylinder. This post is running super long, so I’ll keep this short. I also just ordered some door handle covers for the interior as the original ones have been falling apart since I got the car and I got super tired of it. One of the vacuum rack solenoids was busted (I snapped off a brittle plastic bit when I was replacing some of the vacuum lines), so I plugged up the line on the vacuum rack that goes into the solenoid. Uhhh, lets see…I also fixed the vacuum leak.
#God of yeeted and god yoinked away install
After I install the seals will likely be when I next post on here. Currently, the door seals are so bad that the car cannot go through an automatic wash without leaking some water. This will fix the wind noise at high speed and fully seal the interior from the elements. I plan on getting a set of new door seals very soon. Local weather is getting warmer and warmer, so I’ve actually removed the cover now and with the rain we’ve been getting lately, she doesn’t look as bad. While I do have a car cover now, it is not waterproof (unfortunately), so any grime that passes through the wet cloth gets stuck to the car. I may paint it later, but since its on the ceiling you don’t really see it unless you look at it. Somehow, I managed to find a replacement lift mechanism that is in like-new condition on eBay however, this replacement is burgundy instead of black.
The knob completely separated from the worm gear, rendering the sunroof unable to support itself and not close all the way. In other rotary news, the old sunroof lift/crank mechanism broke. Since I want to at least do the brake booster while the master cylinder is off, it won’t be happening quite yet as I lack the funds necessary to get tools and paint this should be fixed soon after I get a job to supplement my current income, but with the whole corona virus thing my job hunting has ground to a near halt due to the economical side-effects of the outbreak. I also plan on draining the coolant and replacing the hoses sometime later this spring. I will also be cleaning up the brake booster and possibly replacing the rubber lines for the front brake calipers at the same time. However, the brake master cylinder has developed a leak now which I now suspect to also be the cause of the pulsation in the pedal. I did take a couple photos, and a video of plugging it in… I didn’t do a crazy write up like I did with my dad’s car. My mom had me run her van to the dealership for an oil change. Once it warms up a bit (so I can actually exist outside without freezing to death), I will see about running that Seafoam spray treatment will be interesting since the computer likes to turn off the motor and dislikes revving in neutral/park. Probably going to add another can before my next fill up. I put some Seafoam in the gas, and I think that’s part of why it runs better. It’s still there, but she’s running and sounding a bit better. They recommended I add Seafoam to the gas, and I may do the Seafoam spray treatment as well.Īnd after having driven it for a few days she’s doing a bit better. The shop concluded that they wouldn’t cause any long term damage, and the engine is still running good just keep on driving it and the pieces may break free.
They attempted to extract the pieces with some adhesive on the end of their bore-scope, but the ceramic pieces were stuck. They stuck a bore-scope down into the cylinder, and lo and behold, there was still ceramic in there. I took the Prius in to a local shop that is like 3 minutes from my house.
