    Hey guys.
    I've done some searching, but couldn't really find exactly what I was looking for.
    We bought our Prius used last June, in the last year we have put over 30,000kms (remember, not miles). It is now at 103,000kms (62,000 miles).
    I'm just wondering what service we should be looking at doing now as since we bought it used with 72,000kms on it already and we didn't get a service manual.
    The car has been great, we haven't done a thing to it other then oil changes and tire pressure.

    So, anyone have any suggestions as what I should be looking at doing now?
    I did notice a suggestion to do the cvt fluid, anything else?

    Thanks guys.

    Other than the transaxle fluid, you can find service recommendations from TMS USA here:
    Toyota Parts and Service

    Toyota Canada may have slightly different recommendations.

    Hi Prius 06,
    Other than oil,oil filter,air filter changes,i would recommend a Transaxle Fluid change 100,000kms[60,000 miles]
    Spark Plugs are Irridium Tipped and have a 90,000km interval[so they need to be done also]
    Cabin Air Filter[located behind lower glove box]is an easy DIY change.

    Of course Patrick will probably get there before me:)

    I kinda figured the plugs would need to be looked up...they look like fun.
    Cabin and engine filters have been done along with a oil change.
    I'll look at the plugs tomorrow and maybe put the car up and see how hard it will be to change the transaxle fluid myself.
    As for the plugs, what do you guys think of these:

    Thanks guys.

    You really don't need to change the plugs just yet, but you can if you desire. I would stick with the Denso(toyota) plugs, you can get them at the service department. You will want to use a torque wrench. I'm not sure on the proper amount of torque, I'm sure somebody here knows. I would assume they come pre-gapped aswell, unlike older cars.

    the service guide states plugs to be changed @100,000 miles

    ahh here is another thread with the info you need regarding plugs
