  1. I am very interested in this if it's over 35MPG.
  2. I be looking to replace front struts (direct replacement.)
  3. Got it installed rear ones this week. Ride was noticeably different. I think my OEM front/back are not in prime working conditions since I purchased it at 50K miles.
  4. I ordered ARNOTT right and left rear kit.. crossing my fingers.
  5. Greetings, I had coolant replaced at dealer now. Thank you for suggestion.
  6. My original plan was to take US 395 between I90 - I40 via Band OR. But it was too tight for my travel time-frame. I took US 93 instead and was able to enjoy NFL games on the route casinos.
  7. Looks like my MKZh needs coolant for hybrid system. Wanted to get OEM part for hybrid system coolant or something suitable Thank you!
  8. Will check. Thank you! My MKZ going strong at 150K so not worried about it for now.
  9. Here is my most recent 5300 miles trip in about 10 days...
  10. Sounds like me... what ever the last few remaining years we can travel free across US like this.. Going forward it's not going to be free as will be charged by each miles driven
  11. I found my 14 MKZ to be much cheaper and reliable at 150K then my previous 2006 Prius at 248K. I spent almost 3K in Prius to just keep it running. Prius ICE was sipping 1Q oil every 3K miles.
  12. I just wonder if dealer used FULL SYNTHETIC MULTI-VEHICLE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID.
  13. Sounds like Lyft or Uber ride... Like Toyota Hybrids.
  14. You should be offered full MRSP + additional $10K or so for trade by Lincoln and should be jumping in to Aviator Hybrid or something. That would be taking care of customer.
  15. Transmission oil was changed by dealer so yes. It was a full synthetic transmission oil.
  16. Here is tracker for 150K miles hybrids. My 14' just crossed over to 150K miles. I will post a photo soon.
  17. 300K toyotas are most likely taxis and uber vehicles. You can find out by VIN check and some stats like CA requires Taxi registration in VIN history.
  18. Hey, Hybrid badging does come handy. MKZh should have one as I found out in Jackson WY, there was a "Hybrid Only" parking spots on the main street parking area. I wish MKZ had full hybrid logo as it should have looked more legit.. You know.
  19. Same here I went from Yokohoma to Bridgestone/Firestone and lost almost 1MPG. Also these tires are noisy at lower speeds.
  20. Got it! Thank you! Something new I heard Lower gear cannot be used going uphill.
  21. I believe so. See attached image. I utilize downhill button for going downhill. Noticed it helps with quick charging of hybrid battery as we.. No, only used low gear for very short time as the RVs in front slowed down quiet a bit on a steep grade. Please see attached photo. This are two buttons I used for downhill and uphill.
  22. 14 MKZh 137K miles doing 40.5 MPG as per computer.
