I go by the recommendation of another KZbinr who specializes in Toyota vehicles. Inspect the filter after 2 or 3 months depending on how much driving you do and if you have dusty roads, or shedding pets etc. if the filter is clean give it a light vacuum and reinstall. Lengthen the time to 4-6 months for the next inspection once again depending on dust, pets etc. he suggests doing it every 4-6 months after that. A couple other important suggestions are, never put water bottles, bags of ice or other liquids on top of the back seat. In them event that liquid gets onto the seat and with the hybrid battery being under the back seat, you don’t want to get water, juice etc. on the battery. NEVER put a blanket, coat, shopping bags etc. in front of the hybrid battery cooling vent. They first Prius vehicles didn’t have a cooling system for the battery and while the batteries lasted a long time there were more battery failures until the cooling vent / fan were introduced. This KZbinr I mentioned worked as a Toyota Tech with a specialty in hybrid systems. In over 1000 hybrid services he had only seen 2 battery failures. You did an awesome job removing the Phillips screw on the cover. No matter how long I turned the screw on mine during the first inspection, it wouldn’t come out. I had to break it ( harder than you would think ) after buying a new one. At the 2nd inspection once again the screw wouldn’t come out even after turning it over 20 times. On Toyota forums I have seen numerous owners who had the same issue. That little plastic screw cost me almost $3. Good video though.

A warning message came on my car about the Hybrid cooling system, i get my car serviced by Toyota dealer every year when the warning came on my car was due for a yearly service so i sent the car to them and told of the issue which arisen.Theysaid they cleand it and it hasnt occoured since but it has only been a couple of days.I am wondering however has it been done on previous services............?

I don’t think it has ever been done unless you specifically recommended it. For whatever reason, this item is not included in a regular interval, just up to you to do it if you’re driving in special conditions according to the manual. They list it as excessive idling, police, taxi, or door to door services as when to clean it.

While the look is clean I have 3 issues with this. 1) The lens is not adjustable. There should be some ability to as I believe there is too much of the hood being show on the MDX version 2) No sound to identify that the unit has powered on. I believe some of the earlier models had issues just dying after a month of use which was resolved. If this stops working you might not notice that small dim LED which shows if it is on. Even then you have no idea if it is working 3) With no voice you won't know if there is an issues with the microSD card With these issues IMO I would say to get a Viofo over this. Yes it might not look as hidden but I prefer functionality and knowing my device works or has some sort of issues instead of coming into a situation of an accident and then not having the video which I would need.

All valid points. I still prefer this for its looks. But from the drivers seat I don’t know if it’s on or not. Rear view mirror blocks the light indicators. And as you mentioned no audible indicator. Room for future improvements. I honestly forget I have it sometimes. As far as it breaking, it’s still working for me. We will see long term.

Nooooo those are all awful positions shown here to carry your kayak! Especially the tailgate up one. Creating a single pivot point puts a lot of stress on the boat and could cause the boat to fracture, especially with cheap plastic or expensive composite boats. Get proper racks that are designed to carry a kayak or other boat securely. Where possible tie it down at the bow, stern and midship to keep it from turning into a boat missile. There’s lots of different options out there, but the methods in this video are most likely to cause damage to your boat. Disclaimer: I work for an outdoor retailer and these are my own opinions and do not reflect those of my company. Also, I am not responsible for anything you do to your boat. You tied it down, installed the racks, etc, it’s all on you to make an informed decision and follow the manufacturer instructions.

Have you tried to remove it yet? I couldn’t get the original one to screw out and had to use a lot of force to break it to get it out after several minutes of unsuccessfully unscrewing it. I put in a new one and when I did an inspection about 4 months later, that screw also wouldn’t unscrew. This post shows to screw it in and I just pushed it in when I replaced the first one. Now this one doesn’t unscrew either. I have to buy yet another one and I’m going to try to turn the screw ( lightly ) next time.
