Agreed. If you can't afford $1000-2000 to replace a major component, a more conventional car might be better. The Prius is reliable, but it can...
I found the part on rockauto.com for $40, search for the part number. I don't know if it comes with any clips, if not they shouldn't be any more...
I could be just the break in period. Even if its starting to get better, the cold would make it difficult to notice.
