    Has anyone dealt with this vendor "RepairSurge" or this platform "TradeBit"?

    Experiences? Thanks.

    no, but did just today purchase a CD-ROM repair manual for the 'v' on ebay. I have purchased these previously for my 2010 Gen. 3 and was very satisfied. It is the factory Toyota manual, with all the information you would ever need, except wiring and transmission.

    I came across this post while looking for repair information for my 2013 and 2017 Prius Vs. In 2021, RepairSurge offers an online subscription for one vehicle at $19.99 / year. Did you go for it? Was it really as good as the Toyota?

    TradeBit only offers Plain Prius manuals, and the most recent is 2012. I would be concerned about Gen 3 updates. And isn't my 2017 a gen 4?

    It was indicated to be in Venezuela, so, no, I chose not to trade with a sanctioned state. Don't need the potential hassles.

    I went with the Toyota online subscription. Did the job for a fair price of entry.
