Transaxle oil testing results
Hi folks,
The detailed analysis is available at:
http://hiwaay.net/~bzwilson/prius/pri_toil.html
This includes charts for:
1) viscosity change over miles
2) wear material change over miles
3) additive material change over miles
Feel free to offer any comments or suggestions. I claim no special knowledge, just the results of six oil samples, two baseline and four used samples.
My Amsoil ATF experiment continues but it looks like the next change interval should be between 12-17,000 miles. At my current rate of driving, we're looking at nearly 7-10 months of ordinary driving.

awesome, sounds like the NHW11 can run forever if you keep changing its fluids!
