    Used car prices are plummeting - Norcal gen3's are currently selling for about $2,000 less than they were 2 months ago. If you're planning on fixing & selling you better do it quick.

    Just filled up at Costco and I noticed that my mileage has gone from 405 to 475. This 460 was after I got home from Costco.

    My 2012 got that error a few months back, Toyota fixed it under warranty. ZE3 warranty enhancement program, 15 year warranty on the hybrid system for 2010 to 2014 if these codes are triggered: P0A94, P324E, P3004, and/or P0A1A. Google it. Got quoted $3.7k from the dealer to fix it, glad I found that warranty program so it was free. Check if your vin falls under it.

    I'm hoping someone can help. I was driving on the freeway at 65 when the check hybrid system warning popped up and went into limp mode and was able to make it home, less than a mile. Tried starting it the next day but the engine will not start, and steering wheel is stuck as well as can't shift gears. I have two bars of gas. I replaced the hybrid battery 3 weeks ago because the same problem occurred. Any help? The codes that pop up are p0a80, p3190, and p3191. I've read to disconnect the negative of the 12v and fill with gas but I havent tried anything besides disconnecting the orange plug on the hybrid battery and that did nothing.
