What is this in the spare tire well?

Hey, purchased a 2008 Prius standard yesterday. Can somebody tell me if this is normal? What is all this tape stuff in the sparer tire well? Also there’s some yellow liquid pooling?

I’m a bit disheartened by the purchase, thought I was jumping on a good deal (low miles) but the check engine light (P0420) and TPMS light won’t go off. Also only getting like 30mpg even with a light foot.

Anyone have a Dr. Prius OBD2 scanner tool?

Hey! Just bought a 2008 Prius. The person who sold it to me said it had a new hybrid battery, but it’s been having bad mpg. I’m really curious about the hybrid battery health. I was told I can use an OBD2 scanner with Dr. Prius to test it. Is there anybody that has this and can help me out with it? In the Ballard area. Thanks for any help or tips!
