I recently bought a 2011 g touring prius with 190k kilometers on it. Everything is in good condition. It was my first experience with prius so i felt everything was ok. But i happened to drive someone else's simple prius(L variant/basic variant). I felt that the basic variant was faster to pick speed and acceleration as compared to mine. Both are of same model.( 2011) both have same mileage(190k kilometer). My prius feel a little heavier and take more pressure to pedal to achieve same acceleration. Is it normal? Is it because of larger and wider tyres?

AoA Pakwheelers! I offer meter language conversion for Prius 1.8 3rd gen (2009-2016), based in Rawalpindi (Bahria Town). Pictures attached below.
The language conversion was done by me as a personal challenge but now I have decided to offer this service to anybody based in the twin cities. Meter language conversion can be quite helpful since Prius displays its error messages on the meter, and even helps get a better understanding of the features of your car(specially for models 2012 and above which have much much more options than the 2009-2011 3rd gen(1.8) models).

Need some advice.
I currently own honda city 1.5 manual 2018. I want to switch to any hybrid car. A 2010 prius 1.5 is under my consideration which is 156k driven seems to be total geniune and owner claims to have battery and abs 100 percent. My question is that if we consider that batteries and abs are alright do i need to look for any other issue. Will it be a good decision. My main concern for new car is good fuel average, and if possible a sedan car. ( I dont want to buy a 660cc car as it will be a downgrade in terms of engine power and drive). My second concern i ..read more

So I keep hearing this squeaky sound, something that sounds like a bird chirping whenever the scenario is as below:
I'm turning even slightly left
AND
I'm driving over terrain that has small bumps (e.g. even cat eyes, road which has too many pebbles, bajri, etc)
I've gotten shock mounts changed, shocks still have 70%+ life, I've gotten control arm bushings (all 3) changed, z-links are new. I'm frustratingly out of options about what to do now. Please help a brother out.

There are currently no errors when i connect the computer. Its frustating because you never know on which turn the ABS will kick in and the traction control c ..read more
