    Well I took my car to a shop to have the leaking driver's side rear brake cylinder and shoes changed and well they are having problems. They replaced the leaking side and tried to bleed the system the traditional way. Is there anything I can do other than techstream or dealer? Need car back tomorrow night at the latest so any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Problem solved!!
    After the mechanic installed the new rear wheel brake cylinders on both sides he installed new shoes and the new hardware kit then set the spacing on shoes. Because the Prius can't be bled manually at least not by the average I took the car down to Firestone and they did the bleed and code clear. Brakes feel great now compared to how I bought the car and no more lights. How much?? $70 us. [​IMG]
