While Toyota considers it to be a lifetime fill, the gurus on the Priuschat forum have concluded that every 60k is a reasonable interval if you want to keep the car for a long time. It is a very easy job and the process is identical to servicing a manual transaxle.

Replying to: jpeters1970 (Aug 28, 2009 11:23 pm) Everyone thot I had to plug in my '07. Everyone heard the battery pack cost $3000. Everyone heard the battery pack wears out in 50-60K mi. One Ford salesman, whose dealership didn't handle hybrid Escapes, told me the brakes would wear out "twice as fast" because of the regenerative braking system. Although these days it is difficult to find ANY salesman who knows much of anything about the cars that are on the lot. Everyone was misinformed. |

so my shifter is stuck btw. Reverse and Park...when you depress the button on the shifter to move it fr. gear to gear nothing happens, i can't press it down so the car is stuck in the driveway, therefore my keys are stuck in the ignition. the steering wheel moves just a bit but that's it... has this happened to anyone? i'm thinking it's a transmission issue? ugh....the car is only a few yrs old....
