Safety advice

The flooring of your workshop seem to have smooth tiles based on the pictures you've uploaded so far. I'd suggest you modify the flooring into something like grooved concrete flooring.

Good job, I'm learning.
Why do you say grooved concrete floor is safer sir?

Sir Gaz, how do we prevent the ABS unit of an hybrid car especially the Camry from going faulty.... That system is freaking costly(about 200k left thereabout).

Let's educate him small here
The least clearing cost for a car 2005 down is NGN390,000
The least shipping cost for USA roro is Usd900 approx NGN 325,000.

That's already 700k constant without factoring cost to buy, fixing cost (if salavged), trucking to port, sellers margin etc.
The customs duty you quoted here was before the exchange rate customs use changed...

Exactly.. No excitation for the generator to produce power

How would the wheels turning on "neutral" build up compression... Engine & transmission/wheels are disengaged
Gear can be placed in drive... That way the cycle is complete.
Usually the car runs on the battery pack when in neutral, therefore highly unlikely charge will occur as it may have been programmed not to charge battery in neutral gear and when engine is not running (when there's no power supply to ignition coils) because if charging is possible without engine running on fuel, people would have been creating mechanisms to turn the tyres on external devices like rotary grinders or placing wheels on a threadmill to charge the batteries...

Out of the Box thoughts.

In got lost in thought a few days ago about this project, I wondered what would happen if I left the ignition on, and towed the car over a long distance with the battery pack installed.

I would appreciate an interactive session on this.
ICE or Electric motor transmits power to the transmission box.
Towing vehicle means the wheels turn without getting power from the ICE or Electric Motor and very unlikely this will lead to charge up of the battery pack as the power source is not the ICE...
But should help engine build up compression and probably make start up easier..

You are also absolutely correct because I know about that as well.

Kindly help with the method using illustrations that will be easy for the lay man.



Above all, I believe that running VIN check will be the surest bet because other things about the said car/vehicle will also be known/revealed! !!
