There's tons of info on it in this thread, especially towards the beginning. Short answer: on rapid changes in electrical power being transferred...
Fine. Cool. But this is (potentially) a major safety item. Had the car been in a major accident? If not, it's an original defect, or a defect that...
My opinion: Run, do not walk, to the nearest alternate dealer and/or upholstery shop and get this diagnosed. Everything you're describing sounds...
Presets stuck around. Near as I can tell they hook it up to the OBDII port and do their thing. In my case, they also cleaned the car, a nice touch...
For what it's worth, it's not unusual for a new Prius to need a four wheel alignment. Mine wandered about a bit when new until I had that done....
I happen to have a 2010 Level III which runs the same drivetrain and such. (No funny wheels - the V level, I think, has different wheels that...
Given that we now have 3-4 people all complaining about the wait: I'm betting that Toyota underestimated how many of these inverters were on the...

You've just run into the Prius's "it's not really a hydraulic automatic, we just try to make it feel like that" characteristic. In a straight...
For that matter, the quarter wavelength for a 100 MHz is (3e8/1e8)/4 = 0.75 m in free space; a wire antenna that's resonant at that frequency...
What you'll see if you sit in traffic long enough is that your gas mileage will eventually drop. As another poster pointed out, so long as the...
Funny, stuff that goes around. Left an office today, tried to turn on the car: A blink from the dash lights then nothing. You know it's a low...
Well, the argument is that it is bad programming, in the sense that the pre-recall program would allow too much differential heating, thus causing...
Ha. The OP is a drug smuggler and is trying to get our collective wisdom on Where To Hide Things. :sneaky: KBeck
Already did: http://priuschat.com/threads/oil-filter-wrench.141085/#post-2015767. Snap-On's web site (Snap-on) shows the wrench as part of a...
And it's a bit more complicated than that, too. A fair number of Priuses come with satellite receivers. There's an amplifier built into the base...
And not only that. McDonalds had either been stiffing people or settling for paltry sums, under seal, for several years. We're talking multiple...
The danger of being an engineer is that sometimes one thinks one can explain everything. For this kind of question, the proper answer is, "I...
