Don't forget that the old lead/antimony flooded batteries had to be fed water frequently (weekly?), were big/heavy, and had huge self-discharge....
That C 2318 does point to week 12V battery. I'm surprised it would trigger the other codes. The lesson from this is test/replace 12V first before...
Good job spotting my dyslexia, LOL! On a second thought it could be ESL syndrome.
The papers done on techron showed it worked better in city driving (longer exposure time?). Besides, the low levels of techron or similar amine...
+1 Agree. I heard that CR did some tests on B12 way back and it turned out working and cost effective. Personally, I use techron that also has...
Once I drove fast in south FL (about 90 MPH) and killed a crane with a windshield. It cracked entire length across. It was very scary. It wasn't...
As a minimum, the OP should get an used engine with some short warranty. Asking for brand new shiny engine with long warranty is too much and not...
Wow, people who don't worship optima are climate deniers. Live and learn. I hope you are just a fanatic, as the other possibility would be even worse.
Optima yellow is a deep cycle battery. Car starting is not deep cycle duty. Someone here looked hard in the optima technical documentation and...

Coming back to the topic, here are my thoughts (in random order): 1. The dealership is nuts. Unlikely to help the OP. 2. But in their defense, the...
You should have read before posting, as that was covered already. Very unlikely with minor overfilling. Also, the OP didn't state he saw bubbles...
OK, did anyone check engine oil levels?
OK, I missed the part about the code. I googled that too and came up with this known issue of no start with oil overfill in gen 1: Letter from...
If you google for DTC P3190, this document shows up: priuschat.com/attachments/cip3190a-pdf.19548/ Print it, take it to the dealer and ask them...
Mental note to myself: don't ever buy used prius from AZ or CO.
Ask him what fluids he is going to use.
This is a very fishy story. I don't see how overfill killed the engine completely. The dealership is anxious to replace the engine to make $$$$,...
There was a similar (or worse) flooding problem from Pensacola several months ago. The OP should be able to search and find that thread. It ended...
+1, LOL!
