I think you can get a new screen from German Audio Tech for $299. Then just replace the whole sunburst screen and be done with it.
Nothing, to do with my new used battery controller moduel? Other new issue new 12V and new 3V fob battery my fob does ZERO now.
Hello Matt, I just now read your post about replacing your ABS actuator possibly using the thinkdiag tool on your Prius V. I too have a Prius V and am contemplating replacing it myself. Can you share your experience on this? And on the thinkdiag? Thanks, Frank in Houston
Obviously, for some reason that I can not fathom, Toyota has chosen to not export very many of the 5th generation Prius to the United States. I have driven my '23 Prius for 16 months in several states from Texas to Nevada & Colorado. i have seen a total of 2 of the latest generation Prius. Does anyone know why Toyota has chosen this withholding of such a wonderful car from the US market?
Hey I saw a post that you commented on the difference between the 2 battery sizes of the Gen 2 Prius. The bigger battery, the S46B24R, was for the smart option and the other smaller battery, the S34B20R, was for the regular Prius. I by accident bought the bigger battery, the S46B24R, and installed it in the regular Prius.
It doesn't fit perfectly and may be a little bit loose but I was still able to connect it and it seems to be working because I've driven the car around. Is this a problem what I did and will it cause any issues to the car?
I recommend that you purchase the 12V battery bracket intended for the Smart-equipped Prius so that the battery doesn't wobble around. If you can secure the battery mechanically, you will be good to go.
Hey! I know it's been asked before but there are a million opinions. My 12v battery just died in my 2008 Prius. Do you have any recommendations for a battery or at a minimum can direct me to a specific battery that would work? Does Walmarts brand Everstart work and are they reliable? Thank you so much!
I used a $30.00 lawn mower battery in my '05 Prius for at least 3 years. I would have done the same in this 2013 Prius but a friend gave me his used HONDA CRV battery, and when that failed my son shamed me into buying a similar replacement = size 51R or R 51.
Hi Hammersmith! You may want to clarify in your (very helpful) latest post on adding a spare, that those parts are strictly for Gen 4 Prius, not for Gen 5. Since this forum is Gen 5 I wouldn't want folks to get confused in the future. Just a suggestion, and keep up the good work!
Danny- Are you still collecting Technical Service Bulletins? I saw a posting somewhere about an attempt to collect all of them. I have a current one relating to the corrosion around the rear hatch switch which I could scan and send in.
