This Toyota Prius Intake Manifold Removal and Cleaning was done on a 2013 Toyota Prius V. My video shows removal of intake manifold and cleaning of built up crud in EGR passage and ports. PRIUS SHAKES?This 2010 - 2015 Toyota Prius Intake Manifold Cleaning video will show you why.
EGR REMOVAL VIDEO: • Toyota Prius EGR Remov...

*Remember, this Toyota is a Gen III Prius or 3rd Generation Prius. If you're having PCV error codes and other problems like error codes P0401 P0171 P3190 & P0441 its because oil and sludge get trapped in the intake manifold! This is typical with a Gen 3 Prius V. We will also give you a glimpse at Toyota EGR Diagnosis Tips and Repair Tips because I'm sure you've heard from Toyota master diagnostic technicians that Toyota EGR diagnosis for models equipped with the latest generation EGR can be important. Toyota Prius Engine Knocking and Rattling? Yep! This will help! And if you've got a Shaking and knocking prius every morning, this can help tremendously!
PLUS, this video actually covers a little Joe Rogan philosophy, and a few things the Prius gang leader at NutzAboutBolts doesn't cover. I love them fellers, but sheesh!

Best video ever with clear descriptions. I will not remove the coolant hose and leave it alone. I have 2015 model and not so much gunks after 100k miles. Probably because it does not consume any oil within 5k miles Oil change interval.

Thank you for such a clear and concise how-to! My 3rd gen Prius needed a lot of work including removing and cleaning the air intake manifold, specifically the EGR ports. I didn't have any pcv codes but I went ahead and replaced ithe valve while I was there since it's such an inexpensive part and a pain in the butt to get to. I paid someone to change the EGR less than a year ago because of some shakes/rough idling and that's literally all they did. No cleaning or replacing anything else in the system. I'll be doing my own work from now on. I'm telling everyone I can about your channel and have subscribed. Thank you again

My 2012 Prius V was shaking when I started it and initially it would only shake at immediate startup but after a while, it just rattled longer so I parked it. Sounded like the engine was coming apart. Then I saw someone online say that when they shifted theirs into neutral, the rattling stopped and it allowed the car to warmup and after that no more rattle. Anyway, that gave me hope the engine might not be destroyed. The auto parts store suggested the code indicated a cylinder 4 misfire so I changed the coils and plugs and still no relief. I saw information online suggesting cleaning or replacing the EGR valve and cooler might resolve it and honestly I was dreading that job because it looked complicated. I found a thread by Catalinux on Priuschat where he had the same issue and changed coils, plugs, and cleaned the EGV valve and cooler and still had the same rattling on startup and then the problem was resolved when he cleaned the intake manifold. Searched youtube and found your video and it made removal and cleaning look really easy so I tried it first. I used brake cleaner, a pressure washer and even a hair dryer. Moment of truth, started the car and no more rattle. Thank you for this entertaining and well-done instructional video.

Fantastic video. An updated EGR cooler video, would be incredible. The popular one seems a bit outdated at this point. Pressure washer, and your cleaning techniques would be cool to see. If you get that catch can in, let us know where you put it

There's a great overall catch-can video I did here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9yhdbiaqa69c2Q.html. While it's not specifically for the prius, the general principals covered are pretty universal. I highly recommend it.

I hang them with a re usable zip tie on the back of the high power wire bracket with the dipstick positioned for easy checking.

Excellent, informative video, the graphic outlines really help. One thing, f you use purple power on the intake, rinse it off REAL good; it’s somewhat caustic, will likely corrode the metal embeds if a trace is left. For insurance, put a little WD40 on every metal bit. Best to just stick with brake cleaner, less of a witches brew to clean up after. Ditto for the (aluminum) EGR valve. I would reserve Purple Power (and sim caustic cleaners) for use on the EGR cooler, which is stainless steel, and really needs that carbon eating action. And yeah, heard my name mentioned, LOL! So stoked, I sent a link to my son. He said he could listen to your voice all day. :) Addendum: a tip for releasing cable clip jaws (from a PriusChat member, don't recall his name, perhaps someone can chime in?), a 10 mm (6 face?) socket, pressed onto the jaws, will often compress them inward enough to release the clip. Probably any tube with 10 mm ID would do the same, say copper/plastic tubing, what have you. Addendum02: Hope I didn't REALLY come across as "tearing into" nutzaboutbolts, regarding the throttle body coolant hoses. Those guys are heros of third gen Prius maintenance/repairs. Hey nobody bats 100. :)
