Hi-I have a 2012 Prius V-bought it about two years ago-drive a lot have like 231 on it now. Last week heard this godawful sound… went to this private shop and he wasn’t around… went to Monro-which they always have a space opened to check out the car… well guy did scan with a little handheld...

I have a 2012 Toyota Prius V that purchased about 18 months ago with about 165000 miles from a truly excellent owner with regards to maintenance. I drive at least 130 miles daily and currently have 225000 miles on the vehicle… I began looking around at different hybrid battery options for...

I have a 2012 Toyota Prius V and noticed recently that Redline didn’t recommend any of their 0w20 oils for the vehicle. I randomly put in other vehicles like 2015 Honda Accord, 2010 Toyota Camry-and they only listed transmission fluids, their new coolant, and fuel additives. I then put in car...

Noticed Redline updated motor oil safety data sheets as of June 2022 and showed 50-70 percent PAO content… Mentioned POE as being inherently Biodegradable under that section. https://w3apps.phillips66.com/NetMSDS/ViewPDF.aspx?fileName=828863&Language=EN&IssueDate=6%2f20%2f2022&SubFormat=USDS

I was looking up redline oil and a 25 page Brochure came up that was dated December 2021. I looked at the high performance motor oil data and they were different from data provided on web page. At a glance all noack numbers were notably lower at 4. Will try and attach the link...

Just purchased a used Prius V and will likely require tires soon. I drive 130 miles daily from York Pa-Baltimore county mostly highway. Comfort-rolling resistance-and handling would be the priorities in that order…Appreciate any feedback with regards to whether a gripper tire negatively impacts...

I purchased four good year Assurance Weather Ready tires for my 2000 Lexus LS 400 with about 220000 miles on the car. I only rotated them once at 232000 miles. I drive a lot mostly highway and went to rotate them a second time at 241000 miles. The rear tread was between 1/32-2/32 on left rear...

I purchased this gear oil MPT industries 75w90 for my 2000 Lexus LS 400 was 17.95 free shipping-two day priority mail without prime on Amazon. I emailed MPT industries on Saturday and requested Product Data and Safety Data Sheets for the product. Owner of the company M Trueba responded to email...

Redline 75w90 ns and Amsoil FGL seem to be equivalent to Motul gear 300 75w90 in terms of specifications and intended use. The Redline ns and Amsoil FGL formulas also have excellent low temperature numbers with a higher viscosity index compared with regular Redline 75w90 and Amsoil severe gear...

I think the Low Speed Pre-ignition problems have negatively or at least hindered AMSOIL Signature Series oils. Comparatively speaking they do use more detectable additives compared with other synthetic oils that have lowered calcium levels and also use combination of calcium/magnesium wear...

Saw this article and reminded me of something Molakule wrote about effectiveness of PAG base stocks in gl5 gear oils. I think Ford Motor Company sponsored this study. https://www.energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2017/06/f34/ft023_gangopadhyay_2017_o.pdf
