    Hi all,

    Sorry if you’ve already seen me post a bunch of somewhat similar posts elsewhere. I’m just trying to organize my thoughts and I’m very new to this.

    I’ve been keeping up with standard maintenance, but what big replacement/corrective repairs should I expect at 120k and beyond?

    Just recently had total brake job, new spark plugs, new timing chain tensioner, new tires this Wednesday. May do brake fluid replacement soon because I don’t think it’s ever been done on my car. I hear there is a sensor I should keep my eye on? ECG sensor or something like that...

    I drive about 2500 miles a month at average speeds, suburbia, freeways...some rural areas

    The best thing to do is read the threads here, and learn as much as you can.

    You'll likely conclude that the EGR system is the Gen-3 Prius's Achilles heel. The system clogs.
