Honking Inspires Road Rage on a Friday Afternoon !!!
Переглядів 9303 роки тому
My horn is extra-loud and these guys weren't having any of it. I like to let people know when the light is green. Noone's paying any attention to silence. I wasn't honking at them. Horns are blunt instruments. Don't take offence to honking. Wait for something offensive. I took the video because someone pointed, what looked like a gun, out the passengers' window at me, last time I blew my horn. ...

Is available remove actuator without remove dash?
Shouldn't you have the caps off both reservoir tanks while you circulate it?
Not sure what you thought honking was going to do. You also sound overweight.
Looks like we have to remove the egr system in order to get access to this fuel connection point. I'm not seeing how to get the fuel line connection cover off without doing this. Is this correct?
How did you fix it
Thanks for this! Cool troubleshooting techniques! You should update the description and tell us people in the future if replacing the heater core solved your problems.
Where did you get your manual. I cannot find any.
Hi, Thanks for making these videos. Will the engine from 2018 Prius Prime fit in 2012 Prius V? Thanks fro the answer.
Subscribed! This is so sick!! Might be the way to keep the CT200's around? Going to give this a shot. Great series
Before you adjust did you dis engage the or off the parking brake button or justt leave it engage/on??
To work on a parking brake, it must be disengaged. Thanks for the question. - Fix That Prius !!!
Ffs… now I know why my rear brakes are noisy. I didn’t even know the P-brake was a drum setup. On a vehicle made in ‘12! Unbelievable

Hi guys..had blender door problem with my prius 1.8 2012..and after much research,i got to solve the problem.to those who read this,pls help me to spread the information as it did saved me alot of money. Im from south east asia and we only have 2 weather seasons..hot..and wet..so most of the info regarding the issues in the web were mostly about winter and summer conditions..in which summer might be relevant to my case. My problem started when i travelled to the highlands with cooler conditons..15 to 17 celcius..regular temp in the low lands usually hovers 30-35 celcius day time. 27-29c at night. With the temp suddenly drop below the regular ac setting of 20 c .. suddenly the blend door opens. Because the door almost never opens..it got stuck..and the problem started when we got to the lowlands. It got hot everytime the ice engine was on.cool air when using the battery. Solution: Set my ac temp to the hottest setting.drove around 5 minutes...stop the car..shut it down..5 minutes..and start back up. The stuck door shuts.problem solved. Hopes this helps.
hello, i currently also have the same problem as u describe, just wanted to ask is the temperature supposed to be still set to high after restarting the car, during the shut off i heard the blend door closing but i suspect when i turn on the car it automatically sets to high and open the blend door again
do u just lower the temperature immediately the second u turn on ur car ?
holy shit i fixed it by just manually turning the blend door gear under the steering wheel with a screwdriver until the blend door had fully closed, funny how theres thousands of solutions on the internet yet none works and we had found a completely different method for essentially the same problem
@@novobgaming3593 Got any pictures of the correct orientation and mode you were on?

Any update to getting the 4th gen exhaust into the 3rd gen Prius?
hey there, thanks for the video. I just had this done to my prius and it seems to be working fine but I've had a drop in MPGs when i thought it would maybe go the other way. I saw some other guy talking about calibrating the ECU for a gen four. Do you have any thoughts on what might be causing the mpg drop? Thank for the feedback,
I have no issues having the thermostat open when you pull a vacuum by using a vacuum coolant refiller with an air compressor :) use something like an Airlift or AirLife II makes life easier so you have no air pockets..
Thanks I bought one
I guess that's what happened to my 2011 Prius engine at 186k last night. Haven't opened to see the inside yet. It happened without any warning. Perfectly and silently running engine started to vibrate violently with a loud knock. I would not expect from a Toyota engine this early. Used Mobil 1 synthetic since I got it.
The most crack head drawing
Update: NEVER SET A FOOT IN DEALERSHIP!!! i had intermittent sporadic random overheating accompanied with a burst of coolant over the overflow on the plastic tank. toyota dealers convinced me that they looked inside the cylinder with a boro scope and there was coolant seeping tru. FVCK THAT SH!T!!!. Just received all parts, took off the head... GUESS WHAT!!!!! My gasket is perfectly OK! I am so mad at these fake specialists in toyota. they thought that they can get me leave the car for "repair" for 3,600 plus taxes and everything FVCK TOYOTA!!!! FVCK ALL THESE "professionals". i believe that all my problems were with jammed egr and specifically the heat exchanger. I soaked it in oven cleaner, then boiled it on bonfire with water 4-5 times until water comes out clean. This is the single most important lesson for me. and perhaps to you guys!!!! I HATE PROFESSIONALS AND I DONT TRUST THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mine was due to low coolant.
Haha & his friend comes out too😂😂 how weak can someone be😂😂 getting your homies to back you up, that's the weakest shit someone can do So weak....
You forgot to mention how weak they are
I want to change the engine for the same car, model year 2015-2016, and my question is: What are the things that need to be focused on when removing the old engine and before putting the other engine in its place?🚙
Hi, the fly-wheel and dampene. 1- What would happen if the center changed location? 2- If I buy a new piece, how do I know the center point is in the correct place and does it require special tools?
It has to get to 220 for the thermostat to open. It helps to heat up the engine during first start, but unfortunately makes bleeding a pain. Back in the day we would use 3 aspirins to keep the thermostat open, it would dissolve by itself while giving time for the air to escape.
please help. prius 2012. random sporadic irreproducible engine overheating. typically, just a short flash of red T warning, accompanied with a splash of coolant out of the overflow tank. splash may be so big that coolant ends up on pass side doors. changed pump, thermostat, temperature sensor. appeared at the time to solve problem, then problem comes again. it was always sporadic. all this happened with NO check engine light and code. some ppl blame on clogged egr valve. took apart the intake manifold, yes, there was some dirt, but not terrible. finally, i got an innova 3130lat and autel mk808bt pro and checked the codes. now i have codes. one of them is P261C "pump B" thing. <can anyone explain what is pump B, and what A???> set autel to watch the temperature and the pump revolutions. short test drive. T reached 100 degC <just short of boiling> and the pump never moved. target speed was always 0 rpm. I am aware about rotor jammed, and no, my rotor was new when i installed it 4 months ago. the problem seems that the computer does not care that temperature is 100 and does not set target speed.................. what do i need: a new ecu? or reset -- reprogram the computer? <pressure test of the coolant system is ok. no exhaust gases in the coolant. engine cylinders pressure test is ok. oil is clean, no coolant in oil. coolant is pink and clean, no oil in coolant>
Hi, That's a lot of stuff going on. Let's see if we can make some sense of this. Of course, I'm not there and I'll have to make some assumptions. Assumption #1 is there is an air bubble in your system. #2 The air ends up at the top of the EGR cooler. Is it cold where you live? What you describe is typical for a 3rd gen Prius in cold weather. The car runs fine for about 10 minutes then the temp light comes on and it pukes coolant and then it may or may not overheat after that. This is what you'll have to do. 1) when the car is cool enough, remove the coolant tank cap 2) fill the coolant tank 3) raise the coolant tank as high as you can while the hoses are still attached, no cap 4) unclamp the hose at the top of the EGR cooler and loosen the hose until coolant can come out The air in the system should escape and coolant should flow from the gap where you loosened the hose. 5) put the hose back on and clamp it. 6) lower the tank and cap it Do this as offten as nessesary. - Fix That Prius !!!
@@fixthatprius4980 Update. The P216C code appeared after I cleaned the intake manifold. Finally I discovered, I did not plug in the electric pump. My wife's husband is the dumbest person out there. I deserve every joke and ridicule. Please tell all your friends when given a chance. After I plugged the pump, and cleaned the P216C, no more messages. I drove the car with Autel plugged in, and watched. T between 75 and 87 deg, pump rev are 5% above the target.
Are the flywheel bolts reusable or did you get new ones?
Are the flywheel bolts reusable or did you get new ones?
Could it be the Inverter pump
No codes, heat works but heats slowly. I have new pump new thermostat, new head gasket new coolant that has been blead.takes about 15 min to get the air to heat up on max setting. Also, when the air is blowing hot finally, when I turn on the ac button but still keep heat on high, the air becomes room temperature. I cant figure it out.
Hey, I cannot find an answer online to my issue, maybe u can help. I have a 2011 prius where the heat works just fine when the ac button is off, but stopps working when i turn on the ac button. On the other hand I have another 2015 prius, and I always leave the ac button on, and the heat works just fine. Any idea why my heat goes off while ac button is on?

Thank you so much for including all this great information. I did the 4th Gen swap and it was easy because of you. Thank you!! Just a few things I did differently were I used Dorman Water outlet #902-966 $12 bucks at Oriely and Toyota radiator hose #16571-0V060 $16.
Hi, I am curious of how your swap turned out. I am thinking of going a similar route with a toyota hose for the temperature sensor outlet instead of using a metal pipe since the part number you provided is relatively cheap. Did you change the toyota water outlet with the Dorman outlet?
Fu ass
Did you have to refill the AC gas? Thanks!
I am thinking to swap 3rd gen (300k miles, blown head gasket, leaking cylinder) with either low miles JDM 3rd gen or low mile JDM 4th gen for 2010 Prius. Pricewise 4th gen engine costs about $400 more. Which option do you recommend? And why? How did you lift the engine? Did you use engine lift? Is it doable project for unexperienced people? Thanks
The v has coolant flow to the transaxle as I understand it from a Weber State video. Is that flow from the engine water pump or the inverter water pump?
This is the parking brake and not the Emergency brake?
Hi, This is both. - Fix That Prius !!!
hi there is a nipple on the other side of the radiator under the plastic you can use a hex key open it and fill the cooler until it drains out
NIPPLE JUST COMES OFF
Im not a diy person on.this magnitude...at a regular shop how much rhey will charge to swap the engine?
Does it pass emissions?
Take bucket of fire with you.. 😹😹😹😹
Could use some help. Just finished my jdm gen4 swap in my 3rd gen. So jiggle pin is cut, i believe we have the coolant routing correct. Have a kind of gurgling sound and also liquid coming out of exhaust. Fans havent come on when it idles anywhere from 180-206 F. I shut car off when it hit 206.
This guy is the definition of “I can do it cheaper”
