Car never had any cold start shakes, never set any codes, leak down numbers were 100/98 ish, borescopic inspection was fine, plugs were perfect,...
The Prius bumps starts it's engine... every single time. That right there is a lot of wear and tear on the torsion damper.
Or it was just a run of crappy springs that didn't maintain their preload, or were under rated, or whatever.
I think Aisin used crappy springs that lost their preload over time. And indeed, the rubble you see is the remains of the springs, seasoned with...
Follow up here. (It wasn't misfiring).
Sadly, we let this go a little too long. So an extra $400 for a salvage transmission. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
My 2010 is set to hit the shop Wed for a new transmission input damper. Haven't been driving the car much, it clatters and rattles like the...
I tried without success this morning to connect Techstream to a 2008. The car was in ready mode when I connected to the OBDII. Does Gen 2...
The one thing you can rely on with a Gen 3 is that "It's complicated". Here's the thread. Apologies for the tail chasing in that thread. I...
Not necessarily. I've got a noisy transmission damper on a perfect running engine with perfect leakdown numbers and no fluid leaks. I think...

That's freakin' perfect.
Learn somethin' new every day (thanks!). I found the Lisle kit on Amazon. Cool idea. Won't solve my problem because it won't go where I need it...
If the bolts were strong enough to take that sort of force, they'd have been out 90 minutes ago :-).
Access is easy, corrosion is pretty bad (New England car). Two are on the bottom of the housing, one on the back that's a little harder to get...
I've got three very badly stuck bolts holding my engine to transmission housing. Penetrating oil (as usual) hasn't made any difference, I've...
Failed transmission input damper fits this description. Makes a hell of a racket. Goes away at high power, just as you observe. Engine has to...
Elapsed time from inquiry to parts in hand turned out to be two weeks. It took seven days to confirm the order, went quickly after that.
I've observed the action of the EGR in Techstream while operating the car normally. The EGR has always been closed at full throttle and at idle....
I set things up so I could read the gauge while cranking, and I cranked until the gauge topped out... plus a couple extra to be certain. I didn't...
