The 2008s are available! I got a call from the Gilroy Toyota Dealer on Friday that my 2008 Pkg # 5 had arrived and this morning I went down and picked it up....
First, this was sent to me by an acquaintance. It mentioned the power cord to the house being connected to the car's built-in relay terminals. I have no idea...
The Prius has three system main relays that are located within the traction battery enclosure. I assume you will obtain repair manual documentation if you are...
I brought my 2005 in for 30,000 mile service and they called to say that the throttle body was caked with carbon and should be cleaned. I asked what caused...
The Prius ICE has unusual valve timing, as it uses the Atkinson cycle to improve efficiency (vs. most gasoline engines which use the Otto cycle). Due to this...
... The Classic Prius has a tendency to require periodic throttle body cleaning, but my 2004 is at 95,000 miles and has not yet had it done with no symptoms....
Hi Sharon, Unfortunately, it is not an easy fix. We just had the same thing happen: the mice were nesting in the cabin air filter. We live in the mountains and...
This is a bit off-topic. I've been driving my hybrid now for 3.5 yrs. I originally brought it to reduce my impact on climate change. Recently, I've been...
Hi Christopher, Since you apparently have to live with the mice, I suggest that you consider removing the black plastic cowl assembly so that you can fully...
Hi there, I've got a 2005 Prius and I'm hearing a squeaking/rubbing noise when the vents change from fresh-air to recirculate. It's been doing it for a number ...
Ever wondered what would happen if you took your key fob, rather than the Prius for a spin around the block? Well, you can stop wondering. It seems one of our...
Pardon me for using the word Nimrods to describe those who enjoy digging on the details with others, while ignoring the facts. This includes those who have...
... And that's your excuse? Other people can't spell correctly, so I shouldn't either. Sheesh. ... Including not exclusively? Unfortunately the next paragraph...
Paul, are you suggesting that the wording "transaxle warranty to 60k" should really read "Your transaxle will fail and will have to be replaced at your cost at...
... No, I am suggesting that the wording means exactly what it says. The transaxle is only covered under the warranty for 60k miles. That says nothing about...
HI all; Since new, I have had frequent problems with my head light aim on my early 2005. After a short while driving the head lights go to full up or full...
Hi David, I assume that you have HID headlights. I have not had this problem with my 2004 at 35K miles, which also has HID. Since your 3 year/36K mile...
Hi Balt, No, I do not believe that Paul or anyone else said that your transaxle *will* fail at 60K miles. However, if you become a member of the small unlucky...
Thank you, I will bring that up with them on Thursday when the Service guy returns. David Dixen Patrick Wong <patwong3@...> wrote: Hi David, I assume that...

I only need to supply the house during a power failure, a regular Prius should be capable enough. It would be nice if Toyota can added a AC 110V outlet on the...
