    My car is making loud noise and little shaking when it is transferred from Battery to Engine. The sound is prominent at idle or traffic jams. At running, the sound and shaking was not felt.

    No codes, no misfired, no oil consumption and no coolant lose.

    Its Prius v 2015 at 97k km. Bough it at 80k km two years ago. Mainly city driven and mostly run on short trips less than 5 km.

    Any remedial suggestions are appreciated.

    Not yet. So far I cleaned throttle body, injectors. Spark plugs changed two years ago.

    I think not likely. It only happened when battery was at low limit and engine kicked on.

    Ok.... guess you have it all figured out.
    Why are you on here asking questions when you already know what's wrong?

    Sorry, if there any solid reason my transmission is going to die. Transmission oil changed two years ago. Still its so smooth like butter. No issues regarding transmission so far.

    Have you faced this problem and your transmission was weaker?
