    Every 5k religiously, always using really good oil and filter. Currently running Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and a PBL14476. I found out about ATP-205 from Scotty Kilmer and just used it as a preventative measure, just for the hell of it. It's cheap and well, seems to have been effective. I also tried the ATS 505 cleaners for both engine and fuel but honestly couldn't tell if they made any difference.

    Hi
    TY for the non arse reply. Noted on your thoughts. I stopped looking for replies after being attacked on here. Merry Christmas

    Hi
    No I’m not a taxi I’m a commuter to work. Not burning oil. Oil change every 10K miles. 12 yr old car 400+ miles isn’t a lot I don’t think

    Congrats on the 333+K miles. Feels great

    I agree. Then the guy wanted the website so he could snoop.

    400k is impressive on any car but especially on a hybrid. My 2012 v now has 320,000 but has had inverter stranding, brake booster, batteries, xm preamp, oil burning, oil leaks and two egr repairs. Original rotors and front pads, rear pads replaced as part of a rear hub job. One front hub replaced because of a "foreign object" code.

    I’ve done brakes- my driver window fordnt work n I’m not paying $700 for the part- I have abs light n other now but my brother checked n it’s not serious and will help me fix the stuff cheaply non Toyota $$$ shop- we replaced the small battery when lights started coming on- so I guess 400K for me for knock on wood small still drivable issues. I plead the blood of Jesus and place a hedge of protection over her a lot driving that’s got to be helping : ) plus I commute surrounded by wingnut drivers I need the protection HA!!! My paints get bad in some spots but she runs and she still looks good so I’m keeping her. The old gal still has life in her.

    Spell check. Sorry grammar. Driver window gets stuck down. I’ll look for a junk yard part maybe. Don’t miss it too much
