QUOTE(aragongon @ Dec 31 2012, 01:11 AM) 12V battery is used to start the engine in conventional car. It is used once per trip normally. In PC, the engine is started multiple time with EV on and off. So my questions are: Q1:1. In PC, 12V battery tear and wear more than those conventional car? 2. How often 12V battery need to be changed? 3. If PC 144V battery full or half, but 12V battery is drained, can we still start the car? or can run it in EV mode only? Added on December 31, 2012, 1:21 am Cheapest PC in Singapore is SGD 138,988 (= RM347,470). For comparison, latest Mercedes E200 in Malaysia sold at the price of RM363,060 (extra RM15,950 only); 86 in Singapore sold at the price SGD 185,988 (extra SGD47,000 only). Are the Singaporean PC owner crazy or what? 12V battery starts ECU. ECU decides to start the engine via motor powered by the traction battery. So the 12V does not start the engine. Unlike normal cars, the 12 V starts the engine via an electronic starter. Our PC does not require an electronic starter, so less 1 wear-prone component. |

Guys, just in case some of you having the same problem like I do...
All the while I had been adjusting my rear view mirror in "anti-glare" position because it was inadjustable to my view in "normal" position. Therefore whenever I had some idiots behind me using high beam, I can't switch it to the "anti-glare" position. I noticed that after my 1st service. Today I went for my 5K service and addressed the matter to the service advisor. After the service, to my surprise, the service advisor told me that they will replace the new rear view mirror for me completely FOC as the car is still under warranty. They will call me for the replacement once the stock arrives in about 1 week time. So, guys, better have a good check on your rear view mirror if you're having the same problem as I do...

QUOTE(foongchinboon @ Jan 28 2013, 06:54 PM) may i know our PC got how many level of gear? 3 or 4? The gear ratio is fixed, means only 1 gear. You can find the explanation here: http://eahart.com/prius/psd/.at gear box there only have "D" and "B" how to use at "B" position? it will lock at which level of gear? "B" = engine brake, equivalent to low gear engine traction while going downhill by disengaging the regenerative brake. This post has been edited by deeplydeluded: Jan 30 2013, 11:12 PM |
