    I have a 2001 Prius and I changed the oil the other day and noticed a transmission fluid leak. It looks like it just needs a new gasket around the pan, but I can't find a replacement online, and no auto parts stores have them listed on there website. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You can buy one at a Toyota dealer. Also get 5 quarts of Type IV ATF and read up on how to do an ATF refresh in a Classic Prius. Bob Wilson's web site is a good place to start.
