The hybrid battery is largely expected in a ten year or older Prius. We don’t like the budget hit but may go “reconditioned” and deal with it...
This (total system failures) was reported multiple times in this forum. It looks like there are still rough edges in Gen 5. They should eventually...
The inverter is involved in cranking the engine, so for an engine-cranks-then-gives-up symptom, inverter failure wouldn't be my first guess. I'd...
Sorry.... but Headgasket. They are junk and pretty much guaranteed. DO NOT put any sealer in the cooling system. Next is brake booster, water...
That's a good idea, I'll get one of these and run a line into the garage and check on the battery once in a while. Appreciate it! I overlooked...
Hi!! I tried it again yesterday and I'll attach photos. What I noticed: 1. Battery voltage increases abruptly when braking (don't know if...
I disagree with that statement. Every single Tesla BMS I've reviewed incorporates per-cell voltage monitoring and balancing circuitry. The latest...
2024-03-14 14:21 829 miles Car has been in the shop from 2024-03-11 to 2024-03-14. It has been driven about 23 miles while in the shop (not by...
Testing the battery in use is a good idea, but I’ve already handed over the car to the dealership indefinitely (probably a few days, but who...
Update: 2024-02-11 2:15 806 miles The Prius Prime is dead again after only 5 hours of not using it and I caught the failure to start at 2:20 AM...
I have a 1-month-old Prius Prime that is having significant levels of 12v discharge (killing the battery twice so far). The struggling 12v battery...
Why would having frequent long trips be using the car improperly? Because I will go days with out driving I have since taken to connecting a...
It is almost certainly not a transmission failure. A Prius transmission is (weirdly) much simpler than a traditional automatic transmission....
I've (embarrassingly) owned my 2010 for 13 years and have only done oil changes, tire changes, and put gas in it. I did DIY transmission fluid...
The v is now 12.2 years old and would have had 366k miles by now except for covid - based on our previous 30k a year. As is the car just rolled...
Sounds like it is time to install the lithium battery that you purchased.
Brian, it's got about 227k miles on it. I'd been expecting a traction battery failure, as my 2006 Prius ran into this issue at about 185k.
On my 2010 w/ 260k on it. I did what I call, a high mileage maintenance. I had a head gasket failure indicated by hard engine knocking upon start...
Holy cow! Of course yours is a Gen 2, and maybe the brake booster/accumulator lasts longer in those, but wow. And congrats on so many miles on...
