OK so at around 4-5mph (seems to cap at 5mph) this happens and this seems to ONLY happen right after hybrid motor switches back to engine (either cause it has to recharge the battery or the engine needs to be within operating conditions). The rpm would fluctuate like in the video and the worst...
City has been a bummer so far probably the mix of me blasting the a/c and 2 hours for 15 miles, leading me with an average of 17mpg, highways still getting over epa at around 25-26
if you do decide to install this DEFINITELY LET ME KNOW how it went, and if its possible on the orp hybrid. There is probably going to be some cutting needed instead of a panel replace like the rear cargo lights
I've been looking for a decent 110/120 ac compressor to utilize the outlet in the back but there isn't much options, the battery is located in the back so it might be easy to do some after market hook up there. But oem is king.
it was more of an estimate but it probably does drop that quick, also the 5mph is during bumper to bumper traffic, idk if anyone else experiences this, other than that no issues
I've seen someone option it at port? but there isnt really an option for it on the toyota site its a bit hidden, but im hoping its just a matter of buying the trail hunter panel and the compressor and installing it easy peasy
Also mines also lurches on cold starts every morning, I anticipate it and need to really brake before shifting, but yea letting it idle a bit (over 2-3 mins or below 1k rpm) does reduce it significantly.
For me switching from 2h to 4h is always smooth and no thunk but there is a very harsh thunk from 4h to 2h even when moving slow, I find you have to accelerate for it to be smooth but even then its only sometimes. This is all done in a straight line on pavement, but when Im off road it doesnt...
