It's a pretty easy job. I wrote a bit of a guide (with pictures) when I changed mine at 200,000 km. See: V-belt and plugs, 200,000 km maintenance....
Does anyone have a link to the thread with the Gen3 picture and legend? Or does anyone have the legend corresponding to the photo in the opening...
I haven't seen the Gen2 picture. But if you want to post up a photo with highlighted areas I'm sure people here will fill in the details for you....
Hmm, very interesting. No wonder they charged me $650 for an oil change on the first (and last) time I ever got my Prius serviced at the dealer....
Ok that's sounding bad. I don't think the HV battery is supposed to get discharged under about 40%. If it was really that low months ago and has...
Yep, they definitely do make a lot of their income from servicing. I'm not sure how similar the figures are in the US (servicing costs are...
I left mine stuck on, just to show off my green credentials. ;) Just joking, we don't even have those stickers here. I wish we did have those...
Hi 7Lowe. The first thing that you have to understand is that the Prius engine does frequently continue to run, even when no power is being...
Yep, make sure that the gas cap is on tight and just drive it. I don't see any long lasting harm that is likely to have been caused by that gas...
But you are wasting gas. By allowing the SOC to drop down to one or two pink bars you'll be getting horrible fuel consumption (and missing every...
Thanks miscrms. Yes your assessment of what's happening here is pretty much inline with my own. It's due to a reduced capacity battery (for...
Excellent video TPC, that illustrates the issue perfectly. :) Though we can't see the MFD through most of the video we can infer what's happening...
Yes it's certainly true that rapid drops in SOC can occur for a number of reasons, most notably when the engine is cold or if engine power is...
Yeah I hate it when that happens. (Though btw, they do seem to have made the ads here lot less less intrusive after a few complaints. I know Bob...
Averaged over the whole continent this is true, much of the interior is very dry. Near the coast however we get fairly good rainfall, particularly...
I just crawled under mine to take a few pics. I gave it one quick wipe with a rag and could still see the original black finish intact. [ATTACH]...
Great info Mike. I think I'll be crawling under (my 2005 prius) tomorrow and inspecting that part. I'm very surprised to see a structural part so...
Ok that makes sense now. The right rear wheel and axle (on the Ranger) must have taken most of the impact, and that area can't be seen in the...
What was the length of the original warranty, and are you still within that time frame? If so then I'd definitely be pushing them for a second...
Yep I also initially thought maybe it was from the impact with the CRV, but in the last photo you can see the right hand side of the Ranger is...
