I found out that I have a really low level on the dipstick. Luckily I had a bit of Kixx 5w30 from another car lying around so I added a few cups which brought me over the minimum. Since then - no warnings!
Reviews of spare parts for Toyota Prius
My 2020 Prime windshield broke. Aftermarket glass was used, and my auto wipers didn't work. A Toyota dealer tech determined the bracket for the sensing gel pack was not positioned correctly and said OEM glass was necessary. After getting OEM glass, it now works correctly.
Michelin premieres perform great in the snow, about as good as winter tires (reviews on tirerack) Turned my prius into a beast in the snow (for a prius).
I was told to replace the small battery in the back with an OEM battery from Toyota (oddly much cheaper). Problem solved. So far. :)
Bosch clear advantage is the best value/money
The solid flexible ones like Bosch & Rain X work better and there's no risk of that.
I drive a Prius and it handles fine in winter. Although it burns more fuel during winter because of the heating. Only thing I would strongly suggest is getting a quality set of winter tires. Only time it struggled was getting up that steep incline on King Edward after Rideau on glare ice..during rush hour. I still made it just fine while other gas powered cars were spinning their wheels.
I use Rain‑X® Latitude® Water Repellency 2-n-1 Wiper Blades on my 2012 Prius. I highly recommend both of these. They last a long time, never streak, and clear water off really well.
It's the stock tire on my Prius. I'd never put it on my other cars by choice, but it seems to suit the Prius just fine. Never had any issues with tracking. Of course the steering feel is terrible, but that's the story with the entire car.
I buy the bosch ones for my 2012. One of the metal-frame ones broke on me once and scratched a nice semi-circle in my windshield so I'm not going back to that type.
