    Hi everyone, so the prius I bought with 200+ K buzzes so loud especially on the freeway. There are no engine lights on and it drives great aside from the sound.

    Does anyone know what's wrong with it? I heard the prius engine makes noise but mine is rather extreme!

    Never mind, I read that it could be a hole in the cat

    You might consider getting a Prius aware scanner to get diagnostic metrics not otherwise available.

    Thanks, I'll probably do that. I think I was reading one of your posts about it.
