Hey Guys

Wishing to purchase some lightweight original rims for Prius 3rd gen, please recommend a shop in lahore which sells original rims and can buy with eyes closed. Main concern in light weight and not very low profile and original

Any recommendations

Try autoxpress
Search their page on fb. They have wide collection of original light weight rims.

I saw original S-Touring 5 spoke 17" rims at Ahsan Traders main boulevard DHA. Also Asif traders at Hussain Chowk (opposite Total Pump) has original and other light weight rims as well.

After upgrading to 11th gen from my city it was like wow a big change.
But prius is an other story,i dont feel like driving 11th gen after prius tbh.handling is superb as compared to 11th gen,drive is very comfortable and even more after changing my tyres to yokohama cdrive,driving position is great as compared to 11th gen.
One more thing happned today when i was about to take a u turn and power mode was on, i gave full throttle on u turn and that was worth experiencing..have smoked many civic's
But 11th gen is not even less than prius compared to the comfy seats and suspension( its really made for paki roads)
I got the break pads changed,cvt oil,engine oil 5w40,air filter,cabin filter,new tyres and alloys
Its good to go
Avg i am getting is 17.8 minimum and 24 max till now
Always mix hioctane with super

Oops, Sorry i thought you are waiting for the car to reach and then will provide you with fresh tips as per my experience, Apologies.
Well when i bought the car, first thing i did was got all fluids and plugs changed. The most important thing about fluids is the transmission fluid.
As I have already explained earlier on this thread most people specially even the ones at workshops don't know that Prius DOES NOT have a CVT transmission and as a result people end up replacing the transmission fluid required with CVT fluid. It's a big NO for Prius. It actually uses ATF-WS as the transmission is actually an E-CVT which is actually gear based not belt driven. So save yourself from that confusion and following is the necessary checklist
1. Transmission Fluid, ATF-WS
2. Engine Oil, i used Total Synthetic 5W-30
3. Air Filter, Original Toyota
4. Oil Filter, Original Toyota
5. Spark plugs, Iridium
6. Inverter Coolant, use Toyota SLLC
7. Check date stamp on tyres as well (when i got my car the tread seemed fine but date was 3 years old and that's what i consider as expired, sonhad to get them changed the very next day)
You can get the items from Filter House if ure in Lahore as they are about half the rate of Toyota 3S

Filter house is a good shop but they gave me Vitz oil filter instead of Prius and it was not until I got back to Islamabad to see what was written on the box. Now when I sent it back for replacement they came up with stories like "vitz aur prius mein ek hi filter lagta hai" and "company ne new packaging mein itni details nahi likhi hoti".

Thanks a lot for the this
Actually you are right I spoke to the dealer and he said car is due to arrive tomorrow around 1 pm
But you can understand the excitement because it's been almost two months of waiting

Bro oil, oil filter , air filter and tyres are on my checklist but does transmission oil and coolent needs to be changed with 27k on the meter?
And secondly any recommendations for auto shop in Rwp ya Toyota hi chale gi?

[utraja1]

JDM is JDM. No doubt it's a superior vehicle than corolla.

Transmission oil and coolant just to be on a safe side. Never know how long these cars are stagnant/parked
Better safe than Sorry
Don't know any shops in Isb/Pindi, i think @aliusman420 may be able to help in this regard since he's from Islamabad

The reliable place to get these in Islamabad is Toyota 3S only unfortunately, as there aren't many parts related shops over here which deal in authentic stuff.

You are in for a really confusing analysis my friend. I still haven't been able to decide which one to prefer out of these 2. Both have equal pros and cons in different aspects and it's a seriously tough call.
