    Hello, this is my first post here, thank you for having this community... I have a prius 2008 and suddenly it is not starting, on Saturday it was started up by another car and it worked great but only for a couple of days and today is death again:cry::cry::cry::cry:, I was advised to buy a new rear 12v battery but as my car is very old I can't find the exactly same similar model and I wanted to ask you if you know how can I find a similar model that will work out. I wanted to add that I live in Europe, Prague. Czech Republic, any help will be appreciated, thanks again for reading this post.

    Battery is 12v 45Ah-370A BCI-370A EN

    Thank you for your help:X3:

    Welcome to PriusChat!!

    Have you already inquired about a replacement 12v battery at one of the local toyota dealers?

    Here is a thread that might be a good workaround, and potentially less expensive as well : Fitting mobility 12volt AGM battery. | PriusChat
