    Reading thru my 2011 Prius service/maintenance manual I keep seeing "Tighten nuts and bolts on chassis and body." IS THIS FOR REAL? WHY? THANKS, John N.

    You know this forum is for C, right? You get better result when post in Prius IV.

    Yea... because' Prius C is so superior we don't even have nuts to tighten... But those Prius V and Prius IV people, they got lots of loose nuts, almost as much as Gen3 slobs. And don't even ask the peasants in Gen2 and Gen1, most of their nuts are so loose that some of them are already gone. Prius C is superior in every way!

    I do not want my nuts tightened at a dealer or anywhere else. Also, my dealer has not offered to tighten my nuts.

    You c drivers have a smaller car so you may have smaller nuts.

    We are superior :LOL: But seriously, he would get more response in his forum. I say this because the gen 3 Prius has out sold the Prius C, therefore, he'll have more responses as there is more ownership.
