Well, I donât know about a half million miles⦠But I can tell you that the Prius battery will last you a dozen years or so if youâre somewhere in the range of 150 to 200k miles. Thatâs with a sample size of 1 of course.
The hydraulic system that actuates the clutch in your manual-transmission car will not last forever. Just like every wear item in your car, this will fail eventually. Back in the day, a clutch cable was used, but newer cars utilize a hydraulic system. If you are handy with a socket wrench and ratchet, this job is quite easy.
The new Deutz TCD 9.0 four-cylinder in-line engine, generating 300 kW and 1,700 Nm of torque, aims to form part of a new family of engines. Together with the TCD 12.0 and the TCD 13.5 six-cylinder in-line engines, it further extends the upper end of the Deutz power range.
then learn how to adjust your mirrors properly. You sure don’t need to be admiring your rear quarter panel.
When fluid in the hydraulic system becomes contaminated, all of the components that have been exposed to the contaminated fluid allegedly must be replaced and any steel tubing must be cleaned with brake cleaner and blown out until dry to ensure that none of the contaminants remain.
Both lane-assist equipped rental cars I’ve tried where the system is on by default have bordered on dangerous to drive when the system introduces an unexpected “nudge” in the steering, in the rain at 70mph on a twisty highway. Absolutely absurd. That was a CX5, the rental XC90 was much the same, on twisty country back roads driving to my brother’s past dark, smoothing out the corners by approaching or putting a wheel on the line made the system flip out and try to “help.” Stupid.
The 5.3-liter V8 with DFM returns 15 mpg in the city and 20 mpg on the highway when it powers the 4WD LT Trail Boss crew-cab model. The High Country crew-cab powered by the 6.2-liter engine returns 16 and 20, respectively. Chevrolet hasnât released fuel economy figures for the 2.7-liter.
Steering is a pretty big deal. Wonder if software update is the answer or the coverup? Hard to say with GM. It took at least 2 tries to get everyone’s ignition spring done to be sure it was correct. And don’t forget they actually sent notices to people who had already been killed by it to come in and get it fixed. Not that either should happen but ill take a seatbelt that might spark a little in an accident over intermittent steering. Posted by: Clint
While most countries are moving towards stricter standards on vehicle carbon emissions, the US could backtrack on its promises. President Donald Trump has announced that pollution limits due to be phased in between 2022 and 2025 and signed into law by his predecessor, Barack Obama, are to be watered down.
This was my question originally submitted to Sajeev and I have learned a lot from the mostly thoughtful comments.
