Just a suggestion but you might consider having the transaxle oil changed. If you do, provide a clean, dry, sample bottle and ask for (and write on table) that you need 1 cup sample of the old oil.
The reason is I had our new 2010 transaxle oil changed with the first, dealer oil change. Testing revealed some left over manufacturing debris, some early wear material, and early loss of sealant in the oil. By doing the early change, these small particles were removed before the differential and other gears had a chance to grind them up into the 'smoke sized' particles found in other Prius samples. But of course, it is your car.
