FINALLY Changed the Hybrid Battery
After clearing the P0a80 "Replace Hybrid Battery Pack" code every day for weeks, i found a shop that rebuilt Hybrid batterys. I was skeptical based on the price but i picked it up today after being repaired and i am so glad i did it(so far). Power and economy are back! Apparently he told me that more than 30 of the cells were bad. the car has 270kms and it was the original Hybrid battery. I am surprised that a National Auto Repair company has not tackled the rebuilt hybrid battery market. This shop was packed with Camrys and Prius getting new battery packs. Anyways, here's hoping it lasts(it did come with a 1 year warranty).

The shop I visited charged $1100 and offered a 1 year warranty as well, I think they do 2 year warranties for more.
However, I am pretty sure there is a large national mfg doing hybrid battery rebuilds but its not cost effective for whatever reason.

I had mine replaced in the spring (in Toronto) as well, made the car feel brand new. Around the same mileage as yours, slightly less, but the car had been left to sit for a few years.

Sorry i did not know you guys replied. Global Hybrid is the place...they will quote you different prices every time you phone so you should be able to make a deal. my km range shows about 500 as well but honestly i drive too hard to make use of the actual potential savings with the hybrid, i use it for the power instead! the "replace hybrid" error has come on twice since april and i clear it out and i am good again.
