    Had an excellent experience with Hybrid Pit in Buena Park today with Roger Dodger and Andrew this last weekend. They’re byline is Passion with Perfection and they fit that to a T.

    I set up my appointment through IG, but they have email and phone available also. They were very accommodating and gave a reasonable quote in a short amount of time.

    I have a Prius that just hit 200k and I haven’t had any major work done other than a waterpump (thanks AVI @ Hybrid Fix) replacement so I wanted to make sure my car will last another 200k.

    I went in and got the EGR cleaning, Engine Coolant change, Inverter Coolant change, Sparks, Eneos Oil change, transmission flush, and the IG famous Oil Catch Can. They actually had two options available to where to mount it and I went with the ignonito mode.

    Roger sent pics all throughout the day and did a summary at the pickup of the different parts. They even cleaned the engine bay (my bad guys).

    Here’s my EGR before and after servicing.




    He also sent pictures of my progress and they also did a hybrid battery check.

    Overall driven <500 miles but things are feeling great. I need some suspension updates later so seeing them in a couple weeks.

    With all those stoppages to take pictures, this is not a mechanic shop for sure. It's for enthusiasts only

    I'd think drain and fill, just a language thing.

    @jr33zy what's "IG"?

    I like that ignonito mode, been there.

    Oh, they are the US distributor of many Japanese aftermarket PRIUS accessories.

    I was interested in this front grille. But the price was just not within my liking.

    Does "ignonito" mean "incognito".........in other words, out of sight so no smog place can see it?

    Only place I trust for my car, they also work on other Toyota’s/Lexus and Infiniti. Great place for service and hard to find JDM accessories that can drastically improve handling and looks for your Gen3, Gen4 and Prime.
