    hi everyone
    I have this issue going on and off
    2007 prius with ton of miles

    on the freeway cruising at 65mph
    I feel sometimes like the power going up and down but very very very slighlty

    other times
    i get the red triangle with the exlamation car logo on the screen
    still cruising at 65 mph I ear the engine reving up without going faster , i lift the feet off the pedal and press back back and it goes away
    yesterday , at one point I had no more engine assist , the engine was not kicking in , i was only on the battery system , i pull over , turn it off and then on and it when away and i kept driving

    code find
    P0A93 ( i had this code few months ago with same sysmptoms and replace the invereted pump )

    now the symptoms came back but with an additional code

    P2238



    what do you guys think ?

    thanks

    Sounds like cheap inverter pump is intermittent. Failure soon . While it's off if you're going down the road smartly in the heat it'sg0nna throttle back HV charging . Very problematic at speed and temperature
