I have a sweet little classic 2001 Prius that I love with 140,000 miles. However, the engine light went on, and then some miles later the battery light and several others. My Toyota dealer has said the code is 3009, which they claim has something to do with leaking, and means I have to replace the whole hybrid battery, not cells within it, to the tune of about $3000. So what else is likely to go on an old Prius and how many miles has anyone gone without battery replacement? Any other advice? Should I buy a newer Prius or replace and stick with mine?
