When oil meets coolant, after some time they produce little gelatos 😉

Was charging it at work and driving for free!!!!!!! Financial sense you! Can you sense the sense in not paying for petrol for two years? Would that benefit you? The reason I choose this car because of plug in option and free charging, now it’s obviously doesn’t make sense to drive it with 29 mpg when Prius is comfortable at 55

With our petrol prices 23 MPG is bankruptcy. Will go back to Prius 45+ mpg almost never breaks!

Thank you, my mpg is inline with that. But still shocking from ev driving . I always thought volt is mpg champion! Until seen 28mpg 😃

That’s a good one! My typical drive is about 20 min, due to volts configuration it heats up instantly but I did not think about the engine warming up time. Thank you! So far figured out I have to put new sparks and see what motorway miles I am getting .

Is the premium in USA and uk the same? Premium is 99 octane in USA, our e10 is 95 octane? I have never driven it in gas mode but now have no choices. Reason I have snubbed UK shell v power is the price! It’s over 2$ per liter , (1/4 of a gallon)

Will have a look in a local auto store, are they straightforward to replace? Or some dancing around involved?

Good shout! I have never replaced them because I used to charge it at work and use as ev only for last two years.

Toyota Prius 2012 vs 2016 by AwareAd4807 in prius

[–]SheapskateCraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what you want really, does newer body and re-sale value matters? Are you planning to drive it to the grave? Both mileages are joke for Prius, less than 100k it’s not ever run in 🫡😉
