    If you have not changed the Transaxle fluid with WS ATF yet, you should do that. Remember when you did it and , do it again in 60,000 miles. (This is not on Toyota's scheduled maintenance anywhere, but will prvent the build up of metal bits in the motor/generators, which short them out)

    Here is Toyota's schedule

    May be worth while to do a 12 volt battery test while you are thinking of it.
