Truck got another V R&P oil change @4,400mls OCI, used the Fram Titanium I had on hand hopefully it holds up. This one said made in the USA. Also 5,000 hours on the engine which based on mileage equals 25.6 miles per hour of operation.
My first clockspring, on a Gen 3/2014 Prius
Symptoms were an intermittent airbag light/B1801, and inop cruise control
It's a work issued vehicle for him, and no one was interested in $450+ for an OEM Toyota part
I gambled $23.99 for a Chinese/eBay part
Took maybe 20 minutes, was very easy, the steering angle sensor transfered over easily
It all seems to work properly now
No more dash emojis

Hauled two loads of rock this morning and quit around noon due to the heat. I think the heat index hit 112 for a while today. Supposed to me miserable the rest of the week too.
One of our brush trucks at the fire department (1994 Ram 2500 V10) wasn’t idling well or shifting right the last time I drove it so I had planned to put a throttle position sensor in it. I got the sensor today and as always it turned out worse than expected. The air filter had collapsed filling the throttle body and engine with ash, dust and everything else we can pick up while working grass fires. The IAC solenoid was completely stuck. New TPS, IAC and a ton of cleaning has it running better than it ever has in my time on the department. New air filter will be here in the morning.
A local shop is supposed to be keeping up with the maintenance on the trucks but obviously isn’t doing a good job. I’d say oil changes are all that’s being done.

With filters like that you could get a job as a local Picasso.
