    I used to have a 2007 Prius Touring that had a whole list of maintenance reminders I could set up both by mileage and date including but definetly not limited to transmission oil, engine oil, 12v battery, windshield wipers, etc. However in the couple months of owning my new 2014 I can't find anything like it, just the same old annoying every 5k maintenance required message that freaks out my fiancee. Is this hidden now or did they really remove this nice feature?

    the idea is you take it to your friendly dealership every time the 5k prompt is there and they will be more than happy to charge you for the things that are needed/required and then some more, LOL.

    I wish I could adjust or completely remove the 5k warning. My Prius doesn't get 5k maintenance it gets 7.5k so it's a very useless and annoying message. I can't believe they removed the custom settings like the last gen had, now I'm stuck with the old method of tape on the windshield.

    If you have the NAV option all those setting are in there. At least they are in Pearl S. Never use them myself, but they are there.
