Prius C :: Cruise Range Does Not Calculate Miles Correctly
I bought a Priuc C because of the MPG. My wife has a Lexus and she is able to see how many miles she has left before needing refuel. On my Prius C I put 2 gallons and the cruise range shows 1 mile. Why is the computer not calculating correctly the miles. I tried it several time and get the same results,.
View 1 RepliesGolf/GTI VII :: Low Fuel Warning / Range 35 Miles
Yesterday I got the low fuel warning "Range 35 miles". I drove another 10 miles, then put 10.84 gallons in. That range warning seems really conservative, since the tank is 13 gallons. I wonder how many miles I *really* have after the car warns me. (I know it is affected by my speed, terrain, head winds, if AC is on, and so forth.) . Has to try driving til they ran out of gas after getting that low fuel warning?
View 24 RepliesToyota :: Shaking While Accelerating Especially Within Range Of 45-75 Miles Per Hour
I have a question regarding my shaking car (Toyota Avensis Diesel 2.0 1999) while accelerating.
The shaking occurs when I accelerate, especially within the range of 45-75 miles per hour (70-120km/h). It's at it's worst around 60 mph. Whenever I release the gas pedal it stops. It also stops whenever I go faster than 75 mph. When I drive at a constant speed between 45-75 mph, the car stills shakes, but a bit less than when I accelerate. It doesn't seem like there is any specific location from where the shaking originates. It's all over, but there's no shaking of the steering wheel itself. The tyres are ok. After some suggestions I recently put some injection cleaner into a full tank, but with no results.

I know that's a normal msg, but what has me thinking is the fact I've had my truck just over 2 weeks and it only has 1350 miles on it. My understanding is that a tank of DEF should last at least 5000 miles (service interval), which means either my delivery prep guys overlooked filling it or it using way more DEF than it should.

Just bought a used 2012 IS-F 1-owner with 37k miles. Clean Carfax and AutoCheck - very, very clean car.
Test drove it with my wife, fell instantly in love, and signed the paperwork. As part of the dealer delivery, they gave a full tank of gas and washed/waxed the car.
While enjoying the 8 mile drive home in 5:00 traffic, regular speeds of 40-50 mph without any start/stop on the freeway and surface roads, I noticed that the range (distance to empty) on the full tank was only 169 miles!
I realize this is a hi performance V8 - but c'mon! Is there something wrong with the car?
Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Miles To Empty Range Has Been Dropping Every Time Tank Filled Up
So when I first got my car, the dealer had put in a full tank of gas and the miles to empty range was at 347~. After several fill ups since my purchase, the miles to empty has been dropping every time I filled up. A few fill ups ago, I remember it was 327. The latest fill up was about 318. What gives? Do the current MPG avg affect this number? What is the factor for the variance?
View 17 RepliesPrius (Gen 3) :: TPMS Light Blinks For About A Minute Before Remaining Steady
The issue is: when I start the Prius, the TPMS light blinks for about a minute before remaining steady. I have tried to reset the TPMS via the button below the steering wheel (knee-or-so height), but have not been successful (tried with the ignition in "ON" status, tried with "ACC", and as last resort tried in "READY")
My question is the following: Since I do not know all the history of the vehicle, how can i tell if its a sensor, the button, or something in the TPMS or ECU that's at fault? When I picked it up, all of the tires were a little flat (about 25 PSI).

View 12 RepliesSaturn - Vue :: 2008 - ABS / TCS And ESP Lights Remaining On
I own a 2008 Saturn Vue and have had the following problem for about a month – The following “Idiot lights” remain on:
•ABS
•TCS ~ Traction Control System
•ESP ~ Electronic Stability Program Indicator LightIt started while driving on dry/icy/snow covered roads.
They went off and on for a few days and the brakes sounded like they went into antilock mode.I took the Vue to 2 mechanics.
Opinion: there is something wrong with one of the sensors & it needs to be replaced BUT since all 3 remain on there is no way to tell which sensor to replace.
Prius (Gen 3) :: Is There A Way To Increase The Range Of The Key Fob?
I've got a Gen III Prius with the remote A/C start option and am wondering if there is a way to increase the range of the key fob?
I have to park in the sun all day. My office is on the second floor of my building with a window overlooking the parking lot. I can see my car as I walk out. With summer approaching, I'd like to be able to point my fob at the car from my office, start the A/C, and have the car be somewhat cool by the time I walk down to it.

Three times in recent months, when I park my 2011 Sonata and shut off the engine, the radio remains on, the doors won't lock, and when I exit the vehicle, I hear a tone that tells me I have removed the key from the car. The headlights also stay on(see "smart-key-immobilizer-problem" thread, by SOZAR in this forum. My symptoms are exactly the same, including the fact that the problem goes away on its own). No code is posted, and the dealer can't reproduce the problem, so they won"t do anything about it. I have a case open with Hyundai, but no luck.

I often use my key to locate my car in a crowded parking lot. But the range of the keyfob isn't very far, and Prius beeps pretty quietly, compared to other cars I've owned.
Where is the wireless receiver in the Prius? In the door? I'm wondering if there's a way to make it more RF-transparent and thus boost its range.
Prius (Gen 3) Fuel :: Range Display Error?
So this is the second time that has happened to me.
I had 145 km range left on my tank.
I decided to fill up $12 of gas, my bar was at 2, it went up to half tank full, around 6 bars.
However, my range didn't go up, it still showed 145km left.
Now I'm driving and the range is down to 79km left, but I still have 4 bars left, usually at 79km I would only have 1 bar left.
Usually I have to refill up the full tank for the range to change and goes to 645km
