Wow! I had the TSB, and the dealer still wouldn't look at my car without paying $165 up front to diagnose. Also, the dealer said that the TSB is...
I'm close to San Diego -- can you pls tell me who your dealer is? Maybe I can get out there. Did they charge anything to diagnose the noise?...
Toyota must know what this common noise nuisance, maybe safety issue, is. I suggest everyone with this problem to call Toyota Corp at...
IMO, if one of your CV joints started to fail at 30-40k, and it didn't have a catastrophic failure by 254k, then it's likely something else. Some...
Since nothing else is the obvious problem, then I think the only way to rule out the drive shaft is by replacing it. I'm not sure of any other way.
Does your Prius fit the symptoms in the TSB? If so, then did you show them the TSB? Although the TSB is obsolete, the underlying problem didn't...
Update: I pulled the front drive shaft assembly. There was very little grease where the TIS manual says to apply it. So, I was hopeful that...

It sounds like you got a new axle put on? How is it holding up?
I just re-read every post in this thread. I apologize if I've asked questions that have already been answered -- it's a lot to go through. What...
