can anybody please compare 3rd gen to the 2nd generation Prius? Difference between their comfort level? drive? performance? etc.

[dreamwalker101]

Can you please tell me for how much can I get a 2011 1.8 prius S in good condition? I have a budget of around 1.9 million.

Thanks dear for your advice. My car brakes are working perfectly. Changed all fluids of my Prius that's why also thinking of changing the brake oil also as its not advisable to use brake oil more than 3 years as it absorbs moisture.

However I am amazed, there are more than 3000 Prius on road now in Pakistan and Prius forum has reached to 98 pages mark, still nobody cares to change the brake oil ?

According to the document you shared, I am afraid no workshop in Pakistan including Toyota 3S Dealership can bleed the oil from Prius in Pakistan. Sooner or later, everyone will feel the need to change the brake oil as its not a life time usage fluid. Than what will we do ? This will also lead to failure of brake actuators which is the most common problem in 2nd Gen Prius 2004-2009.

Please ask about Toyota TechStream software before flushing brakes. Also find attached correct method to Bleed brakes to change oil. And my suggestion is that if its working fine please dont change it, you may regret if the oil is not properly changed, it will give you ton of codes and the braking system with be switched to basic braking with no regen brakeing, VSC and ABS.

You are right, brake fluid absorbs moisture. You can visit Magic Motors in Model town as they got equipment to check brake fluid.

Did you changed your Transmission Fluid (Atf Ws) ? and which Engine Oil do you use in your car?

In auction room the pictures were taken with the plastic covers on.
The outdoor pictures were taken with the plastic covers off.
The covers are in the car boot kept separately.

Seems like burnt oil. Is your car running ok? what about oil consumption?

[ahsan95]

actually when i got the car from Japan,i took it for necessary changes and fluids replacement.the mechanic checked the spark plug and told to replace it.so this is the old spark plug .
car is running smooth.giving 15kmpl in city on normal mode being bit hard on race.on eco mode in city driving very gently its giving 20.5-22kmpl.

i havent checked the condition of new plug after replacement.Should I?

The whitish stuff is burnt oil in any other car. Should be the same case for prius. Checking new plugs wont cause any harm.
Perfect spark plug should be reddish brown (rust like) in color.

Dear Pakwheelers,

I've just purchased Prius (S-Package) 2011 model 1800 cc. It is driven 45000 km and the auction sheet has been verified as well. Please advise what maintenance activities should I perform. Please also elaborate the lubricants which I need to purchase.
