Hello everyone-
I picked up a super cheap 08 Prius with 165k yesterday. It's at my local hybrid shop getting a new HV battery, inverter and transmission serviced. The car has questionable service history and I am aware that these things like to start drinking oil due to sticky rings. I'm good to do one (or a few) short interval OCI's to clean it up- what are your recommendations? It has a 3.7 quart sump.
I'll also be replacing the original plugs and coils along with all of the filters this weekend if the weather plays nice.
Let me know your favorite cleaning plan for this car, it specs 5w30 in 5K intervals. I'd like to get another 100k of relatively issue free miles in the coming few years.
Thank you!
