Prius (Gen 3) Fuel :: Adjusting Temp Up Or Down Hit Efficiency When Not Using AC
When NOT using A/C, does adjusting the temperature up or down effect efficiency at all? Take for example, if the outside air temp is 75 degrees, is it be optimal to set the temp setting to 75 degrees and ventilate with outside air? (in this case, I assume the system doesn't really have to do anything except run the fan) If you set the temperature to far below the outside air temp, would you see an efficiency hit?

2010 Prius IV. Map display not adjusting to night mode when her headlights are on. I tried looking at my 2014 Prius Three, not III because it isn't a 2010 and only 2010 used uppercase Roman numerals for model designation, to guide her through it over the phone but her menu options seem to be very different from mine as she didn't have an options button on her map.

The buttons to change the temperature in my 2010 Prius don't do a thing... The temperature is cool-ish as long as you have the AC turned on, and stays the exact same as you increase the temperature until you get to 85 and it maxes out, then it starts to get warm. As soon as you go to 84, it's cool again.

My outside temp readout seems to be stuck at 61-64 degrees and that won't allow the auto select to come on if I have it set at say 72 degrees. It has been working really great up till about a week ago.

The past few days ive had the switch in the on position but when I exit the car and come back hours later after it's been in full sun the fan isn't on and the cabin isn't lower in temp. Occasionally when I shut off the car I hear a short beep and I assume that means the system is active and later I find it is, but that is with the moon roof open. Is it normal for the fan to not turn on unless the roof is open?

The "Check Hybrid System" message came up on my dashboard. I took it to the dealer, and they said the temperature sensor on the transaxle was giving erratic readings. Unfortunately, they said that the only way to fix it is to replace the entire transaxle. They said I could keep driving it and that it would probably go into disabled mode before it caused any more damage. What I should do? It's a rebuilt 2012 Prius with 25k miles.

How to step by step adjust the low beams. I looked at trying to do this and haven't got a clue. Do you need to remove the whole lighting unit or is there an adjustment screw you get to by feel, because you aren't getting in back of the light assembly from the engine compartment, maybe remove the wheel well guards? I think i'm in the market for a service manual. My motto is If it aint broke...........fix it until it is!!!!!

Passat (B5) :: 2002 - Adjusting The Seat?
My mother just bought a beautiful 2002 Passat 4motion Wagon.
But, the only thing we can't figure out is the automatic seats...
She adjusted them for her driving, then I adjusted them for my driving, then she adjusted them again, then they adjusted to some weird setting when she unlocked the door!!
What we'd like to do is have it so that:
It defaults to her setting regardless, unless a button is pressed for something else. How do we set that?

When I have it set to comfort, it will adjust up and down at just about every other redlight. Also when I get out sometimes the front will go down. Not leaking or anything there is a electro-mecanical type noise heard and both sides of the front go down the same amount. Is this normal?

The 2 side mirrors get "lazy" after not adjusting them for a while, and won't respond to the electric lever on the driver's door. Even in the summer, I find myself playing with the lever for a long minute before it starts responding at all, usually I'll be moving it vertically all the way up and down, before it will respond also to any horizontal adjustment....
