    The Transaxle and Inverter are Very Expensive to Repair and Coolant Replacement for the Transaxle is much easier than the Engine Radiator Coolant Replacement and Very Important. Owner's Manual Recommends Replacing Coolant every 100,000 miles. Both Use Toyota Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC). I've attached a document on How to Replace Gen II Prius Transaxle/Inverter Coolant.

    Now, if only I could find similar detail on how to replace the engine coolant, that would be great.
