    All appear to be fine. As with all models of the Prius, it does use some oil. Nothing unusual.

    Good luck with the egr circuit ;).

    Some say the access isn’t easy:cool:.

    I’d say it’s not the worst job you can do on a Prius :).

    The head gasket takes that place(y).

    Through trial and error, turns out #1 cell block is closest to the ECU on my 2010.

    Block 1 is always the one that the negative lead is attached to.

    Start counting from there. Always.
