    You could try an OBDII you now have, if a proper OBDII not available...(I've used a cheapo and it helped with my first Prius repair before I got an Bluetooth OBDII to use with phone apps...
    It may not read everything but you'll probably get codes to give you some idea on what's going on, and nothing is lost if it doesn't read..

    Good luck!

    That's my gut feeling but it is tempting. 2010 with 75K for 11K, But the battery is 10-11 year old and not a bargain if the oil issue is real. This is for my daughter. I can't see her checking the oil weekly and adding oil.

    that price is high, no?

    my 2012 plug in w/ 70,000 miles is only worth $9,500. on average around here
