"Ad hominem (Latin for "to the person"),[1] short for argumentum ad hominem, typically refers to a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby...
I disagree. The dipstick marks specify the high and low safe limits. The Atkinson engine has a habit of blowing oil into the cylinders if the sump...
Check the plug gap. If it's out of spec, it would indicate that the plugs have a lot of miles on them. If they're well within spec, they're...
To me, that definitely looks like ash from burned motor oil on that spark plug. We've had a couple Prii, and I've always kept the dipstick level...
The noise obviously changes with vehicle speed, so that's why I think it's related to the wheels. Wife's Prius was starting to get noisy like that...
Sounds like the brake pads rubbing against a rough spot on the brake rotor. If it had a little surface rust from sitting for a few days, that may...
You can get used HID projector lamps from wreckers ... car-part.com has dozens of them. Looks like a serviceable pair could be had for about $300.
My wife's 2007 Touring just turned 103K. We bought it in 2012 with 35000 miles on it. The car immediately needed a couple of tires (the dealer had...
I've been using these guys for 20 years (Big Bear Tire). I'd recommend them to anybody in southeastern Wisconsin. Since they had to take the left...
Just a final update -- I took the car in to a trusted suspension shop and they concluded that BOTH front bearings were bad. That made sense to me,...

Jack each wheel up and see if the hubs have any lateral play ... that is, whether you can pull the wheels in and out on their axis.
I too am surprised a bearing would fail at just 79,000 miles. We bought the car used with 35000 miles on it, so I suppose the car might have seen...
I finally got around to jacking up the car this afternoon. I can feel the right front wheel shift when I rock it in and out (lug bolts are tight)....
I like to keep the tires around 35 psi. I have a Touring, so the aspect ratio is a little lower than the standard version -- the ride is plenty...
That's just the info I was looking for, Chap. Thank you.
Thanks for the replies, folks ... I've driven more than a couple cars with noisy wheel bearings, and if this bearing is on its way out, I'm pretty...
I drove our 2007 Prius (79K miles) the other day and noticed a whirring or slight grating noise whenever I loaded up the left front wheel (by...
My car doesn't burn any oil, but I always keep the oil level halfway between the "full" and "add" marks. That minimizes the amount of oil vapor...
Did he bump out the roof a little? Doesn't look too bad at all.
