Are you in Lagos? I have some issues with my hybrid Camry 09 to fix

Plus I need a proper hybrid mechanic to manage the car going forward.

Hi, I can handle hybrid repairs too

empron:
The ideal of producing hybrid cars is minimised air pollution and embrace green energy.Toyota Prius are really fuel economical car with 1.5L engine using atinkson cycle.
City MPG: 48
Highway MPG: 45
Combined MPG: 46

Thank you!

2004-2009 Toyota Prius is a good but I don't think you can direct tokunbo at 3m but 3.2m you should be able to get one.The second generation Prius(2004-2009)are durable and rugged with good fuel economic, getting a foreign used will be more reliable in maintenance.Honda civic hybrid is not bad as well I think you should be able to get that @3M but I will advice you go for Prius.Regards

What do think about Camry hybrid Nigeria used?

Depends on the price, bought Nigeria used almost 4years ago and I used it for mobile workshop,check the high voltage battery strength,ABS light indicator on the instrument cluster.If the battery is ok,you can go for it.Better still run a full diagnostic scan on the car.

Thanks for ur prompt response.
How much do u think is a good price to get it? Someone got one for 1.8m with little work to do
I’m planning using it for Uber job and my engineer is giving me backup to go for it cos he has a good knowledge about hybrid. I just want to know if I’m going to enjoy it on the hustle of Uber plus Lagos traffic

Best fuel economy Hybrid cars to consider
Toyota Prius
Honda civic hybrid
Easy to maintain once you have good maintenance culture.

2006 civic hybrid just brought few days, customer complains about 12v always run down and the car will not start next day.
We troubleshoot and discover faulty DC-DC Converter is bad, remember hybrid has no alternator.On take off performance I give it civic hybrid compare Prius.When it comes sleek, luxury and fuel economy.I will give to Prius.

HV battery DTC P3025

First generation hybrid Lexus RX400 and Highlander hybrid share the same powetrain only body differ.

The inverter used in hybrid cars required coolant for cooling the system,a white plastic attached to the inverter act as reservoir there also electric water pump.The water pump plays a vital role for coolant circulation, checking the white plastic attached to the inverter regularly is very important and you notice coolant movement or bubbling.
Failure of water pump will damage the inverter.

P0AA6 in 2008 Toyota Camry hybrid
What is P0AA6 hybrid battery voltage isolation fault?The high voltage system is secluded from the low voltage system and the vehicle's frame.
Forget the long grammar,I solved this issue by probing multimeter negative and positive probes via continuity.I noticed HV battery casing and positive terminal short circuit,after opening the casing I discovered leakages from one of the battery.

P0AA6 Toyota Code - Hybrid Battery Voltage System Isolation Fault,got a call from a lady she drives first generation Highlander hybrid 06model, vehicle refuse to start after she went to market.We ran a scan and found the above code.cleared the code and it starts drove down to office for more troubleshooting and after packing the car refuse to start until u cleared the code or remove auxiliary battery terminal.
To get access to HV battery your have to remove the rear seat with 14 wrench,on the floor at the rear seat,I discovered water ingress

Blocked rubber drainage with dirt

Traces of water inside the contactor relay,it was open and clean left it with direct sunlight to dry any water trapped.It was fixed back and test drive no more P0AA6

P3105 DTC

P0A1F

2010 Honda insight is second generation hybrid for Honda with an improved design and output,a parallel hybrid system from the review is even better than civic,if well maintained,you can go for it.
