I feel really foolish.... The PriusChat UI is so similar between the forums and conversations that I *thought* I was "posting" to the forum and,...
Patrick, Awesome job! Congrats on getting the car done. I did the head gasket on my 2012 last year and, well, that car kind of did the same trip...
ChapmanF: I gather you are talking about the comments about the misfire margin. That is interesting. When I get access to TIS, I'll try and get...
rj. LOL. Yeah, I talk to that guy that did the HG all the time. He knows all of my most intimate secrets and challenges... I see him every...
OK, based on that comment about a failing coil on plug, it sounds like that isn't the issue. As for as timing.... I was very very careful, to...
Good info from all... Thank you! I've been very reticent to do the "throw parts at it" type of approach. I'm also very aware that *some* parts...

Coolant level is stable. And I just did an oil change too; there was no water in the oil. I really don't think this is a head issue (although...
Good question.... Yes, the plugs were OEM, brand new in the box. And, if there is any concern, the gasket/seal kit for the head job was also OEM...
My 2012 Prius V has been a fairly low maintenance car. It has about 117K miles on it, and the biggest issue was that at 103K, I had to do a head...
An old post but I thought I'd add another possible source... I have a situation with my daughter's car. She lives in about 45 minutes away and...
