    I picked up a 2005 Prius with a bad gas engine. It runs but makes bad motor noise. I'm in Greensboro but can transport car and motor with dolley

    dpeverhart,

    Did you take your car to Taylor to have the engine replaced? If so please share your experience with us and the cost if you are so inclined.

    Ema has 354,000+ miles now and will probably need a new engine at 400 if not before and I'm looking for a high quality, Non-Toyota, shop in NC as well.

    Happy driving,
    Chris
