Hi all. Many thanks to Jeremy, Russell, Lars, Chris, Stan, Marc, Bruce, Peter, Jerry, Jon and all! You know, I used to drive quite fast in "ancient" times,...

Hi folks, I have a 2002 Prius with 89,000 mi on it. Yesterday, I was driving home from work and about 45 min into the drive the Check Engine Light came on. I...
Good plan! It's usually not even recommended to take the car in for a CEL until it's been on for over a week, and you'll likely be able to drive many miles...
... I've been working on compiling a fuel economy tips document for the Prius, but until I get that together, here's the short answer to your question. Gliding...
... I don't know of anyone who regularly uses neutral to improve fuel efficiency. If someone here does I'd be interested to hear their rationalle. I'm one...

... a CEL until it's been on for over a week, and you'll likely be able to drive many miles (if indeed the diagnosis is even near the mark). The hard part was...
This sounds exactly like my issue, and I am sure it is related to the recent recall for Echo and 2001 Prius, that replaced the crankshaft position sensor....
