I am always amazed at the techies who will actually do this to their brand new vehicle. I think the Prius qualifies as a "Toy" in more ways than one.

watcha all doin to get to this point? wiring problem on some part of it. Also like the sign on the H H battery.

it's not our prius, Salsa- he works on them for a living

frank- dash rattle, it's one of the feed pipes for the heater core- it's bent and causes a rattle at a certain rpm range.

Oops! I should pay more attention to those signatures! But is he like some of those mechanics and prefers not to work on his own? One of my friends dated a couple of mechanics and never had her oil changed or anything like that. (get the minds out of the gutter!)

oh, he's ripped ours apart plenty

i try to keep him from playing with the car excessively- he gets to see prius guts every day anyway. but all maintenance on any of our cars has always been done by him and him only- neither of us trusts anyone else to fix our cars!

Yeah! That's what I was going to say.

So G, just how PIA is it to remove the dash? Is it airbag sensitive and not recommended for home?
