    Thanks for all your assistance in wheel-bearing replacement advice. I couldn't "crimp/indent" the axle-nut. mark was directly downward and I couldn't get enough force to create an indentation. I was going to drive it to move it. Is the viable or does it always point downwards now? How to crimp it as well? I used a small hammer and screwdriver to no avail. Thank You.

      Try a centre punch and heavier hammer?

      I am going to try again. I think I was just too apprehensive about hitting the axle for fear of breaking something.

    I have a 2010 with 235K and want to add an OCC to it. Do you sell the 3D mount you made? I am guessing I can get the OCC off amazon. Thanks,

    I have a 2010 prius w 130,000m,and a booster pump running every 10 sec. I plan to change the brake booster/actuator.
    1. Would you advise me to steer clear of BAM Auto.
    2. Can I use techstream and complete bleeding procedures without a scanner?
    3. If I go forward w the Techstream plan what dongle and cord would you recommend I buy?
    4. At some point I would like to buy a scanner. Do you have a recommendation

    Mr. Mendel I installed a new master cylinder because changing the booster pump and accumulator did not prevent the pump from running every 14 seconds. Now the new master cylinder emits a chirp [sort of a whoop sound] most of the time when I touch the brake pedal. Have you run into this problem before ? I think the Toyota dealer should exchange it for me.

      changing the head gasket did not help ! [smile] That was a separate problem, of course !

      Did dealership install? If DIY’d, that muddies the waters some. May spring for them to do an assessment? I know…

      Yes, I did all the work myself; brakes and head gasket. I can feel the vibration in the red brake line. I will try damping it. THANK you for your help. Our retirement village has been built and maintained mainly by Canadian SnowBirds !

    Hey Chapman this is Bryan from the U0293 post I’m having the same issue again code U0293, I wanted to see if there’s more issues I’m not aware of related to this could the 12v charging circuit cause this?

    Jim. Someone here on PriusChat forwarded me your profile, as you're in E. Stroudsburg and know of a certified Toyota Tech. If so, would you mind sharing his number with me? I need to get my blower motor replaced as it's dying.

    Thanks,
    Joe

    The climate control blowers are not blowing (outputting) any air at all. Don't appear to be firing. That's as of this morning. They might start working again, which has happened a few times.
    All of this leads me to believe that the fan motor is dead, jammed,etc.

    The cabin air filter - even if clogged - wouldn't stop the blowers from firing, and I would surely hear them, but, I'd have little to no air coming out.

      20k miles?? That's the thermostat right next to the water pump (engine coolant pump)? Did you do a coolant change as well? Not sure: check all connections, and that doesn't work turn anything up get the codes read?

    I have 2013 Prius Plug-in with 120k miles. replaced thermostat. rights after was placing in maintenance mode waring started "check hybrid stop at safe place". clear the code came back. it could be coincidental but more likely something happened during the repair caused the warning. any thoughts or ideas what to do next.

      I just noticed this message. Maybe there is some air remaining in the engine coolant loop, causing the engine to overheat?
