Prius v: 200,000 miles club | Page 2 | PriusChat I believe this is a very low oil consumption. 4 ounces per 5 k miles... About 1 ounce per 1000miles...
Alright slight setback. Check eng P0171 code still running concern or not any suggestions just to confirm what I researched. Possible vacuum or maf. Thanks.
P0171 Toyota Air/Fuel Mixture System Lean Bank 1 OBDII Engine Light Trouble Code | Engine-Codes.com Injector fault? Also check oxigen sensor...
update: drove about 600 miles with light on no noticeable problems. turn on car to go to work light light went off has not come back on 500 miles later.
I'll give you 3:1 odds it will be back unless you nick the problem in the bud. Try USB's advice first, and clean the MAF sensor and air throttle. Five minutes, some rubbing (isopropyl) alcohol for the sensor and brake fluid cleaner for the butterfly is all you need. Bob Wilson posted a How To thread if you have not performed this task before. I find it easiest to spend another 30 seconds to remove the sensor. That way I can just dump it into a baggy with the alcohol, swish it around gently, then let it dry before putting it back. I clean the butterfly while waiting for the sensor to dry. Taking the sensor out also prevents me from spraying it with the carb cleaner, which is a no no.
U my friend are correct came back on the other day. I will see about the cleaning an check back with u guys.
update 307000 total cost $2.00 only because i had none in the house. isopro alcohol and spray bottle optional from dollar tree. took off maf from air box cover cleaned it out drove almost 1000 miles, no check engine. did not clean trottle butterfly maybe next time. i guess i should start posting in 300 thread anyways thats all.
