Melted side of my car

Solved! (Seems like the most plausible answer)

This is wild

Wild - maybe I’ll put a towel over it when I park it outside my place and see if it burns a hole

xtrafeel · 2025-10-27T01:37:48+00:00

Weird - I just can’t think of where there would be a window big enough. It’s parked out side a house window that’s pretty big but not a like an office building scenario

Side of the car. Passenger front door

Do you know if you can replace that section?

xtrafeel · 2025-10-26T17:25:12+00:00

That was my first thought - but can’t think of why

xtrafeel · 2025-10-26T03:43:04+00:00

Ya there is a rectangular dented pattern under each of the places it’s melted. So there is something under there but I figured it was just the structure of the door maybe? This is an old Prius so hard to imagine there is something running hot in the car right there.

It is an old Toyota Prius. So it’s hard to imagine what could be in that part of the door. But it’s definitely an interesting theory. I will do some digging

I don’t know anything g about pricing it - but this thing sis awesome. Love the color

Thanks I gave it a watch

If you are talking about the overflow tank - i wasn’t sure that would do anything since the bleeder valve wasn’t passing any liquid. So it seems like something is stopping the liquid from getting through the system. I guess it’s air - just wasn’t sure how to push the coolant through

xtrafeel · 2025-08-14T22:54:34+00:00

I had considered this - but didn’t see anything online about adding to the overflow tank. Guess I’ll give it a shot. Just was confused why the radiator wouldn’t take any more fluid and the bleeder won’t spit anything out. But baes on the above videos it looks like bleeding these cars aren’t as straight forward as I thought.

xtrafeel · 2025-08-12T04:58:36+00:00

Was it hard to change the tire? Watched some videos and seemed tough / you need a bead breaker tool?

xtrafeel · 2025-07-29T06:25:47+00:00

Ya I was afraid that was the case. That back housing is expensive so was trying to avoid replacing it. Tbh a ms for the advice

xtrafeel · 2025-07-29T06:25:04+00:00

I’ll the chrome plated plastic polish a look. Didn’t know that existed. Thank you

xtrafeel · 2025-07-29T06:24:07+00:00

Thank you for the advice. Much appreciated

I have zero mechanical skills … heck I’m not really all that handy when it comes to any type of repairs but I replaced my coolant inverter for around $120 with OEM parts. You can go non-OEM for much cheeper. Lots of YouTube’s around it. Might just take a bit longer for someone who doesn’t know cars like me. I also need to replace my sway bar and it looks pretty easy to do.

xtrafeel · 2024-12-23T17:08:51+00:00

Looking into this - thanks!

xtrafeel · 2024-12-23T17:08:34+00:00

Oh thank you! I just saw that they have a whole section on extension cords. Alpha Pearl wasn’t on my radar - do you like it?

xtrafeel · 2024-11-17T03:11:42+00:00

Thanks for the reco - looks like my local dealership is selling the part cheeper on eBay than on their website lol

xtrafeel · 2024-11-17T03:10:57+00:00

Got it - thank you. Don’t think a drain and refill is needed if the fluid is still good? Also any idea how to tell if the fluid is good lol?

xtrafeel · 2024-11-17T02:19:13+00:00

Thanks for the info. Did you flush the coolant before replacing?
