ODO 366740 aftermath. doing a quick check on the damage. headlight needs replacement., fender needs a little No paint dent repair i noticed brake fluid around the driver front wheel i see the brake fluid level from max went to min. also the engine oil level went down a 3rd on the stick. but thats understandable with all the high revs and uphill climbs i been doing.

ODO 365773 approx I hit a freaking Deer! broke driver side headlight with its head. i swerved to avoid it but but it followed the light with its head. i was going 45 mph but i think i hit it at 20mph it rolled. stuff flew everywhere i thought was her body parts but it turned out its the headlights. i wish i pinpointed the spot. but it was dark so i didnt want to stick around. funny thing is a bunch of cars just passed me by with their headlights on high. i was on low beam at that time sadly and it was foggy. alas. dented my fender a little too but i should be able to undent that part.

ODO 351300 approx noticed it was still using oil. Ran EPR on top of CRC motor treatment. changed the oil. with Mobil1 0W-30 with BG MOA. OCC had 1.5 cm of oil in it but no water. dang i cant remember when i did it. so i put in 7/25

Poured CRC Motor Treatment i drove to irvine and back. coming back, it started feeling like it has more power. Could be just placebo, i'll take it out for a run and change oil and see if thats the case. how could it have more power when the electric motor hasnt changed. hmm.

refurbished hybrid battery, completely disassembled and rearranged as needed. One module was really bad. Replaced. 5 others are weak. Cleaned all dust completely. batteries, even along ducts and fan. charged discharged to 84 and looks good. New nickel plated copper bars and nuts used. cleaned the sensor tabs also. Hybrid battery missing many many screws from the previous rebuild. sad. corrected. Some battery case bolt down - bolts were not installed correctly. one bolt is just incorrect. some seat bolts are not even connected. corrected Spare tire area very sandy. cleaned.
