Prius (2004-09) :: Oil Pressure Sender Unit Location
Where the oil pressure sending unit is located? And could that be the cause of your low oil pressure when you still have almost full oil on dip stick?

2002 jetta GLS 2.0 ... I am looking to change my oil pressure sender/switch but I cannot locate it, my oil light blinks every now and then, I was told the senders go bad often and to try replacing it, I have no oil leaks, just changed the oil and new filter. I also have noticed that when I turn on the car in the morning, while idle is fine, as soon as i pull off there is some blue smoke trail, only in the morning when i pull off, does not happen again, why that could be?

Prius (2010-12) :: Tire Pressure Monitor Indicate Too High Pressure
When I bought a used camry 5 years ago and drove it on the highway, my front tire busted and damaged the fender cuz it had too much air!! I wonder if it shows high pressure on my 2010 gen III Prius v with ATP. I know that the tires are special on this v version but still I like to keep a slightly higher pressure in the front ones because the lane keep assist feature works better with higher tire pressure. Summer is coming up so that gets me worried what to do with tire pressures.

What is the thread size/length of the 20 transmission pan bolts on the 4R100? I am replacing the pan since the rust has finally started weeping ATF, and the bolts need to be replaced as well, they have turned into little rusty nubs. So i want to use stainless ones. I could pull one and go to the hardware store, but what is the size i can stop on the way home.

View 19 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Low Oil Pressure Light Blipped On Twice
I recently returned from a 500+ miles roadtrip in which the low oil pressure light blipped on twice. It happened so fast that I couldn't even tell what it was the first time, I thought it was the tires. So i stopped, checked the tires and kept driving, about another 100 miles until I got home. The second time it blipped very quickly again but I caught a glance this time and it was the 'low oil pressure' light.
When I got home I checked the dipstick right away and there was no oil on it, only a thick, copper colored type residue with what appeared to be little flakes. I put oil in until it reached the middle of the dipstick, which was 2.5 quarts.
I didn't hear the engine making any funny noises or anything out of the ordinary when driving. I put the new oil in and it started fine and sounds normal. - 2.5 Quarts low after 8300 miles, ok to drive? Should I be worried about any damage to the engine? Other than burning so much oil?
Prius (2010-12) :: Low Oil Pressure Message Came On - Oil Burning?
I recently had an oil leak in my 2011 prius 3. The local dealer replaced the timing chain cover and fixed the oil leak. I drove my prius for 4,000 miles and the low oil pressure message came on. I took it to the dealer who said it was completely out of oil and that it is burning oil but they don't know where or why and their only recommendation is that i change the oil every 3,000 miles. this seems crazy. Why a 2011 prius would be burning so much oil? i don't see black smoke or leaks.

Today when I was driving home from work and getting off the Freeway the yellow triangle flashed and the MFD said "Low Engine Oil Pressure" and the car beeped. It was only on for a few seconds then went off. The off ramp was one of those looping ones and I was taking it pretty fast probably around 50 MPH but I have done that many times before...
View 19 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Tire Pressure Warning Light Came On
It was very cold in the morning yesterday and my tire pressure warning light came on. I had a funny feeling that it was related to the temperature but it didn't ever go off so I called Toyota today and they said to drop by with it and they would check it out. On the way there after work I got rear-ended. So sad. I thought it was just the bumper but the hatch won't latch properly so they said they would have to 'pull something out...". It was going to be about $800 for a new bumper but now will be more. I'm going tomorrow to see their collision guys about a quote to fix it. My poor car. I have to admit that even with a dented bumper the car still looks good!!! I don't know how I'm going to manage for the two days it takes to get it fixed. I have to re-learn how to use one of those key things.
The Toyota service person told me that he had 14 cars in today alone to reset the tire pressure warning lights that came on because of the cold weather. He said my tire pressure was fine. Just my bumper needs a little work.
Prius (2010-12) :: Tire Pressure Warning Constantly Blinking
I have 2011 Prius Pck II. Racked up about 22k miles now is socal. Replaced one tire due to flat. From week 3, Ive had blinking tire pressure warning.. then it stays lit then goes away.
Dealer said they will reset and say the sensors are just sensitive. Well.. 22k miles of annoying problems continues to blink then stays lit, then goes away.
I think it is defected.. they don't want to admit it and replace for me.
Prius (2010-12) :: Left Rear Tire Losing Pressure
A few days back, the low tire pressure light came on, and I checked that the LR tire was only about 20 psi while the other three were ok (>30). I inflated LR to ~35 psi and the others as well. The warning light disappeared.
Today while I was filling gas, I checked the LR, and it is already down to 30 psi (hot) whereas the other three were about the same.
Is this just a small leak/puncture or something else (valve stem, etc)?
Prius (2010-12) :: Tire Pressure Warning Light Malfunctioning?
I think my tire pressure warning light is malfunctioning. I check all the tires with different tire gauges and they are all showing around 40 psi. I reset the system by holding down the button and let the light flash 3 times after I check them. It is only sporadic and does not stay on unless one of the tires is low. I did have a loose valve stem, that I tightened myself. When it does this it seems to come on and flash before going off and does not stay on. Sometimes it stays on for a little while and then goes off. Could it be a bad sensor?

I took my Prius to get one of the air pressure sensors replaced on a front tire. When they returned it to me they told me that the ABS and the VSC lights were on and did I know that. I told them that was not on before. Anyway they told me they could not fix it an I needed to take it to the dealer to get it re-calibrated which i did.. How can I prove that this happened when the tire was being worked on, or can I?

View 8 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Tire Pressure Light Illuminated On Dash
Our winter tires on the 2010 prius have the pressure sensors insalled in the wheels. Yet, ever since they were installed, the tire pressure light has been on on the dash. I have checked the tire pressures numerous times, and they are okay. In fact I now have the tires slightly over inflated instead of at spec, and it's still on. Do the sensors go bad in the wheels? We've had no issues with the system with the summer tires and wheels.
