Separate names with a comma.
I mention front differential oil because it is listed in the owner's manual. Did not make much sense to me, either. I'm assuming it is a...
Ah, in which case, this info probably applies to my other post wondering about the safety of changing my ATF for the first time at 145k miles....
As a tag to this ancient discussion which nevertheless came up as the #1 google hit while looking for info on changing my own ATF: ATF invariably...
As the title says, my 2008 has about 145k miles. The ATF and front differential oil have been regularly inspected, assuming the dealership has...
126k mile gen II consuming oil | Page 2 | PriusChat My own post and answer I found on wikimotors.
I just went through a similar thing with my gen II. I know the later prii have updated engine models, so it may not apply, but the gen II listed...
Yeah, I have to admit, back when I was a poor sailor driving a hard used third-hand 3000GT, I was religious about these things, but buying my...
I keep meaning to mention, that was an extremely approximate approximation. The oil level travels from full to the bottom of the dipstick over...
You're probably right. I was considering the lighter oil based on a theory that the piston rings are gunked up and not properly sealing. A...
So, in summary, I believe I started off with a bad assumption, namely that modern cars don't normally burn oil at a "mere" 100k+ miles, and that...
Ok, so my searching finally led me to wikimotors, where I found this. The important details to me are pasted below:
Ok, trying to combine all feedback here. If the engine likes to dilute oil with fuel from the get go, it follows (in my mind), that normal wear...
I shall probably do that. PCV valve change out within the next day or two, when I replace the plugs. Oil swap to heavier weight, I may wait a...
To be honest, I did not know gen IIs had oil lights (which I always thought was a dumb oversight on the part of Toyota), until I did a search just...
Sorry, I mentioned changing the spark plugs only because it seems many people replace the PCV valve at the same time out of convenience, since the...
I didn't say I wasn't doing that, but adding oil is just treating a symptom, one that should not be there. I am looking for a solution to the...
I have a gen II with 126k miles which has been consuming oil at a rate of about 1-2 qts per oil change, just enough to leave nothing on the...
Not only that, but when I checked mine last, I discovered mice had turned it into a nest. Pulled half the fuzz or if the filter, and chewed holes...
Any chance of an update to the temperature profiles you posted back in 2008 for your Prius tires? I'd love to see a definitive, data-supported...
Like I was saying, though, it may depend on not being constantly blinded by oncoming traffic. On the sub, we used red lights in the sleeping...
