hi tony I have the agm but since I don't have JDemo sometimes I park with the fan on high while charging on the hot summer and I wonder just how long sometimes the battery might get. It seems you can also turn on the compressor a/c while the car in on acc on, but it doesn't seem to do much...

I was looking at the car 12v which I upgraded to agm and it looks to me like you could fit an extra 2 batteries next to it if you were to install a self of some sort on top of the cooling pipes. Also, the cooling pipe that joins in to some sort of router appears to merely be bolt on to the frame...

Hello all, I am looking into a 12v car battery monitor and stumbled on this one from amazon https://www.amazon.com/bayite-6-5-100V-Display-Multimeter-Voltmeter/dp/B013PKYILS/ Looking at The diagram I see that they want the shunt to be placed between the battery negative and the chasis ground...

Just look at pauls guide its the first link in my post. He has pics on how to do it. You just pull the glass cover for the light bulb but they have little tooth notches. It is not hard I've never done anything like this before and it went well. Just the cabin and cargo leds are a little large so...

The lights really help they are much brighter and super cooler. I actually burned my finger with one of the regular lights as I pulled them off after taking a picture. The LEDs stay cool. The brightness really does make a huge difference at night. The color really is white while the other is...

I blew the fuse for the vanity lights 7.5A and while looki ng around the fuse box I pulled the Page 389 # 11 P CNT-B 7.5 A Parking control system Fuse and switched it to the vanity lights slot. Got the vanity lights back and an error message saying " P Lock Malfunction Park in a Flat Area...

I believe that you need the scan tool to get all the coolant out of the battery because there appears to be a sort of valve that keeps the coolant in the battery and you use the coolant to open it and flush all the coolant out. I am not entirely sure but I did read something like that before. I...

I am trying to think ahead and I am wondering if it would be better to sell the RAV4 EV with some Ext Warranty left to it or wait till the Ext Warranty runs out then try to sell the RAV4 EV? What do you all think would be the best route to take? There really isn't anything better than the Rav4...

To be honest I think Tony might be your best bet in terms of cost being less than traditional dealer. Tony has been doing a lot of work on the RAV4 EVs so he will be knowledgeable enough to help fix the issue. Also, I believe he has access to the full RAV4 EV repair manual and that would help a...

EDIT: That's weird my original post was not complete. I edited and it is now showing my full LED light list. It was auto hiding half of my orignal post. Don't know why and I wasn't using BB code. I had to disable bb code and smilies so it would stop doing that. Now my full post is showing...

Have you checked the constant velocity joints? Mine were replaced this year and they are a common failure item for the rav4 ev. Also, you changed the brake pads? Were they worned out? How did you wear out the brake pads? Lots of hard breaking? or are you the second owner? I believe tony had...

Hi All, Anyone know what the cost for a used rear seating bench is for the rav4 EV? I think the benches are the same for the gas model as the ev? If so what is the year model range the bench is good for? I'm considering on selling mine if I remove it and use the rav4 ev strictly for cargo + 1...

Hi Miimura That doesn't sound good that it came in damaged. Would you happen to know what the tongue weight max is ont he rav4? looking at the rav4 forum they say 200 lbs tongue on the 4 and 300 tongue weight on the v6. Any thoughts?

I'm going to install a tow hitch on my rav4 ev and I noticed Tony installed the Reese Towpower 51157 Pro Series Class III Hitch, but looking online I see CURT gets mentioned often and that it has a really good history and quality...

Who cares about range when you have j d e m o. Do you know if the odometer uses front wheels or rear wheels? I would love to have better traction on the front wheels. Wider tires would have a bigger contact patch And also add a little more weight at the front. Perhaps even help with braking...

Thank you Tony I did call longo Toyota and the service representative said it was not void the warranty. That means I am safe for removing the rear bench. M Thanks again!

What are your thoughts on putting wider wheels at the front only? The rear wheels do not provide any propulsion So they would not help at take off. Do the rear wheels affect the odometer or only the front wheels? Wider front wheels would add more weight and help with traction. Rav4 Forum...

Saw a youtube vid on how to remove the reaR bench. Its easy 4bolts and folding cable disconnect but would doing so void my warranty?
