    I live in Los Angeles and am looking for an alternative to the dealer for service and repairs to my 2008 Prius. It is looking like I will need to replace the battery and I'd rather not pay dealer prices. Thank you for any recommendations!

    welcome to priuschat! anyone can replace the battery (including you), do you have a local garage or gas station mechanic? most regular maintenance is not hybrid related and requires no special knowledge or skill.
