Just completed my first rebuild of a Prius battery (2001). Followed the guide. All went well, except that we didn't get one of the wiring plugs fully seated, so the car didn't perform as expected. We were able to remove the cover within the car and found the problem. Car now runs well. All seems to be normal.
Hardest steps were getting battery pack out of, then back into the car. It's heavy and in an awkward place. But we did it. The rebuild itself was pretty straightforward. We spread the work over three days due to other commitments.
Located good used batteries from Toyota Vlad's Toys in West Sacramento, CA. Purchased '07 and '08 batteries (one each) from wrecked Priuses at $200 each. Used all 28 of the '08 cells and 10 of the '07 cells to rebuild the '01 pack (38 cells). New cells presented a tight fit, as stated in the notes, but it works. Measured voltage of each cell to confirm good condition before putting cover back on. (Also tested all cells of the original '01 battery. It had only one bad cell, with only a slightly low voltage, but that was enough to cause warning signals and performance problems.)
Tyler of hybridbatteryrebuild.com provided good support, with quick responses to my emails with helpful answers to my questions.
My friend and I actually enjoyed the experience. Of course, it helps that it turned out well. :-)
