I've never measured current draw when starting my car. But our booster cables and the batteries are rated in the hundreds of amps.
Before the car is started, parasitic* drains will consume some energy. I follow a Tacoma forum; they often complain of the same issue: off-operation losses being a...
There is a YouTube channel I've started watching: "Dashcam Lessons". People from all over send in clips from their cameras. They have specific "karma" reels. Worth a look.
The rust appearing on the surface cannot be prevented, due to the high iron content of the rotor. High carbon knives act in the same way: once met with moisture, they begin rusting almost immediately. See Japanese sushi chefs, constantly wiping their knives.
After washing and drying, I do a...

Another :thumbsup: for ^ this drain pan. Been using it for several years.
And a :thumbsup: for Race Ramps. Several designs are available for different clearances...
Good discussion and details. For anyone involved with these topics in the future, ask for (if buyer) or present (if seller), the window sticker; it will confirm if the car was built with the HP kit or not. VINs do not identify the option.
Owning a rare or unique car can be enjoyable in many ways. But the Owner will lose money like everyone else.
Before and into the debut of the Mach 1, we were dealing with COVID. Shortly after its debut, Ukraine was invaded by Russia. Both events had meaningful impacts on supply chains and...
There are two separate features.
Blind Spot Assist. This feature uses the car's sensors to check the blind spot and take evasive action. Lane Assist needs to be turned on for Blind Spot Assist to work. Not to confuse anyone, but a driver might think of it as "active BLIS".
BLIS by itself is...
Driving Modes do not affect this feature.
Surprisingly, Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) can be turned on and off in the 7G.
1. Confirm BLIS is enabled, that it wasn't disabled by mistake. If BLIS is disabled, turn it on. Confirm the sensors in the rear of the car are not being blocked or...
Attached are schematics, highlighting fan logic and operation in a 6G.
Before delving into switches for the fan assembly, I'd consider two other factors:
- Airflow across the front of the car, into and out of the engine bay. There are several track cooling threads and sites, all with tips on...
It's difficult to tell anything from the photos. Two things I can think of:
- Valve Cover Gaskets. Valve covers can be torqued down unevenly at the factory or simply loosen up. Ask the dealer to check the valve cover on each side. Using a simple hand ratchet and modest pressure, attempt to...
I have not read the following thread in detail, but I believe your concern and the thread are related?

That, I have not seen.
My initial idea would be to look at the home, existing water lines and tap into one of the hot runs. A line could be run from the tapped point to the garage area, with a spigot installed there. It'd need to be a wall adjoining the interior of the home. Running to an...
I'm mentioning @DFB5.0 :thumbsup::thumbsup:; he could have some filters and equipment in mind which could be of help.

I can't speak to invoice, but in my area, all '25 DHs are being advertised at a 10% discount. About $7K off sticker. And that's the starting offer. '26 DHs are listed at sticker.
The Oil Life Monitor (OLM) cannot determine the brand, type or weight of oil in the engine.
The OLM counts down whether the car is being driven or not.
The minimum standard for the OLM is to alert the driver of an oil change one year or 10K miles / 16K kms after the last one, whichever occurs...

There's some feedback in the thread above. It's finding access to a freeze plug location. One that doesn't interfere with other devices already installed on the vehicle.
If the dealer has time...
Attached are some additional photos. It's real simple.
1. Pop the cover on the front bumper. Press on one side, lift on the other. With a small pick, you can then apply pressure to the cover lanyard and remove that.
2. ZL1 sells a reverse-threaded rod that screws into the receiver. Screw in...
