Red Triangle, no codes again

I don't know of any dealer that will do a traction battery repair - they will want to exchange the entire assembly for more than the car is worth. If they can find one.

 

If you're going to look at spending that kind of money you might as well buy the project lithium battery if there's any in stock Prius camper can help you with that seems to be a good system very strong etc so it might be something to look into I mean I just bought a battery from Toyota I paid they put $3,000 hold on my card and I got about $1,500 back or 14 and change after they accepted my return your return has to have a Toyota silver battery cover on it with the sticker visible I don't think they care what's under that cover but it can't be painted green and say green bean on it or green tech or any of that that covers easy to round up in any town if necessary pretty much any of the places that do this battery repairing and all that should have them stacked up out back The cases and covers everyone I've been to had them overflowing couldn't get them to the dump quick enough or something. If I had the money right now or had the use for I guess I could put it in the Gen 3 I would go try the project lithium battery that's next on my Prius bucket list if you will but I might not ever make it there because mine seem to be doing reasonably well and all that but just takes a minute Good luck

 

That's a good call, IMO, the Lithium battery that is being pushed does not have a long enough history of real-world usage to know what its longevity is. Unfortunately, nothing can speed up that process.

 

Well, technically there are ways to accelerate the aging, but to do it right would require a pretty big investment in hardware and time, and it isn't the sort of thing that a small company is likely to do. There are no accelerated tests like that on their testing page:

There is a CE certificate on the top of that page from "Shenzen QC testing laboratory". I don't know a thing about them, maybe they are on the up and up. It isn't at all clear to me what this CE certificate means, in terms of testing, but I suspect it is mostly safety related.
