Greetings Gen2 Prius owners, I just wanted to share my experience with you all about a noise I chased for quite a long while. On hard...
Well, I changed the transmission fluid when I did the engine swap about 15-20K miles ago. I'll drain it again and see what shows up.
Well, if there ARE metal pieces, it's gonna need a transmission anyway. I forgot to mention, this one has 260,000 miles on it! Nothing good lasts...
Thanks for the suggestion, I doubt it's the heat shield, but it's worth a double check.
Well, I haven't been on this site for about a year. And the good news is that it's because the Prius has been performing great! My commute part of...
I found it on eBay at a much better price than the local dealership. They wanted almost $800 for it! This one was only $468. Toyota Prius 06-09...
After putting almost 2000 miles on it, all is well. Engine runs great, no longer consuming too much oil. And as a side benefit, the catalytic...
Thanks for the heads-up!
Well, since replacing the fuel tank/pump, it's been running great and no more check engine light. I haven't rechecked for codes, so I am assuming...

So, I recently returned from a long trip on business. When I got home, I installed a fuel pressure gauge on my car. Lo and behold: only 20psi!...
Thanks!
One bar over half. It was reading 2 bars over empty before I added the gas.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions, greatly appreciated. I'll try the fuel pressure and the cat tomorrow and post my results. Now I have to...
Well, back in the days when I was a real mechanic, we'd simply unbolt the cat from the exhaust manifold and see if it ran better. But these days,...
It's pretty fresh, and I added about 4 gallons to it just in case my fuel gauge was off.
Yeah, I thought about putting a pressure gauge on it. What should the pressure be, around 50psi?
Well, that is certainly a possibility. I have a new cat for it, but hadn't replaced it because of the oil consumption. Perhaps I'll install it...
Okay, after replacing my 245K mile oil guzzler engine with a younger 128K mile engine, it ran great for a few hours. I stopped by work for about a...
