You might have been lucky and dodged a bullet, but I wouldn't assume that everything will just be "back to normal" once you get 5w30 back in...
The main things I've noticed that can cause the engine to be a bit "hair triggered" in wanting to start like that are: 1. A weak HV battery. 2....
There's no need to experiment, that's what the full line on the dipstick is for. Just don't overfill, that's all that is needed.
I've never used it, but I believe that you can add it to your crankcase along with your normal oil. Can you tell us how much oil "Little Green"...
Hi Les. What 2k1 Toaster says is correct. It's best to leave the Prius in "Ready Mode" if you want to listen to the audio for any period of time....
Yes, it's still a bit of a mystery (well at least to me) of exactly how it does it, but the ecu that tracks fuel consumption somehow uses...
Thanks for the update Mavi, it sounds like you got a good deal. Don't worry about small amounts of oil usage, but do check it regularly. Most...
I hope that I'm wrong, but given the intermittent nature of the combination meter problem (particularly when it first starts happening), is it...
I'd like to add here that when I replaced my spark plugs at 200,000 km, Sparkplug replacement at 200,000 km (pictures). | PriusChat the OEM ones...
I'm just updating this thread with a new development in the oil consumption situation. I was going to wait until I had a bit more data, but...

Yes obviously it's a function of speed, but I'm pretty sure that everyone else here understood that we were talking about flow vs viscosity, not...
Yes engine load is generally less with the new battery, as is the percentage of the time that the engine runs (due to spending a bit more time in...
Well the engine probably runs about 10 percent less around town (but not so much on the open road). So that's nowhere near enough to account for...
Those figures align pretty well with my improvements in fuel economy too Jamie. Up until this last week my wife had been on holidays, so I've...
Thanks Kljash. Yeah that's what I was wondering, why the early replacement without warranty. It might have come from a non CARB state with 8 year...
So does that mean that at 106k miles your Prius had already gone through two HV batteries prior to installing this new one? Just out of interest,...
Just remember to impress on the kids the need to check the oil reasonably often on an older Prius. A lot of modern cars will happily go from oil...
It could also be the traction battery vent tubes (the ones attached to the cells right inside the battery pack). Apparently they sometimes soften...
It looks like there was a little bit too much guess work there regarding the fuel level. :) Still you are lucky that your wife stopped as soon as...
