UPDATE from the mechanic: no codes; spark plugs, etc looked good; they test drove, no issues. He said the borescope test would be advantageous if...
Just to be specific - mine, at least, is not at 200k and I haven't done what the dealership recommended because they didn't tell me about this...
I guess I am. When you go on these threads, these are the loudest voices, as you clearly know. I just happen to be in a phase of my life where I...
It looks pretty good but there might be an advantage to flushing and refilling, I guess...?
Checked the coolant yesterday and it seems fine. I don't think I've touched it in eight years and it look over halfway full but I'll mark it and...
This is awesome, really appreciated. Yeah, I don't want to throw money at a looming issue. I want to either save money for a new engine or a new...
Oh, you don't know the half. It's been a hell of a year... for five years running. Got a movie for that?
Wow, ok - that was all very clear. Finally. I've been on the threads this week because I had a shudder on a cold start last week after a night of...
Was talking to a mechanic today about the Prius EGR/Intake Manifold/Head Gasket/Spark Plug/Etc issue and he said he worked on a woman's car who...
Again, I appreciate the help but as I said, DIY is not possible. I'll see what the shop says.
So this kills me. I found the American version of this warranty extension and it's 150k or 15years. I am just above 150k miles but I'm still...
Looks like they were quoted an astronomical sum but managed to get out for 1/7th of the cost. I just don't know how it'll go at the shop. I don't...
Appreciate this a lot. Yes, I was thinking "rip the band aid off" as a way to just deal with an issue that people put across as inevitable. I...
Thanks. The thing is, I thought I *was* doing proper maintenance. I don't know what 10k oil changes means, but I was regularly (3k-5k) doing oil...
This was not helpful. I don't need someone to tell me to worry more than I already am. If you'd like to offer a different lifeline and pay for it,...
I wasn't aware of this as a quirk. Could I be this lucky? I need some luck. Everything else you've shared is kind of to the point of my problem -...
I've been trying to read up on previous posts - and watch the YT videos - having to do with EGR/Intake Manifold/Head Gasket and I still have a few...
I have a 2012 Prius IV and the glass on the side mirror shattered - the housing seems fine. It shifted a little out of place, but I clicked it...
Thanks, all. Had a well-reviewed mechanic look it over, and also ended up with dealer-side extras I didn't know I was getting, so all looked good,...
all - I'm in LA, and have done a boatload of looking for my perfect used Prius. I let one get away a couple of weeks ago but just finally...
