Awesome data, thanks so much. Good to know that the regen green zone achieved by pressing the brake pedal isn't actually riding the brakes, even in slippery mode.
Any chance you could collect some data using the L button to "brake"? My impression is that hitting the L button with your foot...
Correct. And if the hybrid battery is already fully charged, (you know, as charged as it gets per AATorqe monitoring) then there's no regen, just engine braking.
The more I think about it, regen braking in slippery mode, and especially max'ing out engine braking using the L button must...
It would be very cool to see that scan data and sort out what is going on. To be clear, we drive in slippery mode to optimize fuel efficiency and coasting, but not in actual slippery conditions.
Breaking is generally gentle, with the coach reporting 100% energy regenerated probably 3/4 of all...
Around $880? Their computer system was down so no itemized bill. The total cost was $959.82, including pads, oil change, 30k service, the rotation, inspection, tax, etc..
As usual they tried to upsell a piston valve carbon treatment or some nonsense totally inappropriate for the hybrid...
We just had to have the rear rotors (only -- fronts were OK) replaced at the 30K service. (31,000 miles). The pads were worn as well, but still some left. They hadn't been replaced ever. What I don't get is how and why the rotor is wearing -- aren't the pads softer and easier / cheaper to...
