I always keep the charger in the socket during charges and even when I'm not charging the phone.
Is this necessarily a bad thing, is it running down my battery?
Prius (2010-12) :: Clicks Came From Left Side Of Car
I sat in the car while waiting for the wife to pick up a some things at the store and after a couple of minutes, there was two or three click sounds.

Why this could be and how I can fix it? The driver side mirror can move in all four directions. I've tried unsticking it and pushing with fingers to center it, that doesn't work. I can hear the motor when it goes up and down, but can't hear the motor trying when trying to go left and right.
View 7 RepliesAccent LC (2000-05) :: Tapping Noise On Left Side Of Motor When Running
I've got a 2001 Accent 1.5 liter 5 speed. Car has 105,500 miles. Whenever the car is running, it makes an irritating tapping noise somewhere on the left side of the motor. I've been told that it sounds like the timing belt, but the car runs perfectly, doesn't miss. The tapping used to go away 30 seconds to a minute after starting it, but now it's constantly there and slightly louder. The noise goes with the rpms. When the rpms are higher, the tapping is faster. I've also noticed some loss of power. I recently added some octane booster to the fuel but noticed no difference. My uncle told me it may be a main bearing starting to go out but the tapping does not have a metallic tone of any.
View 3 RepliesPrius C :: Daytime Running Lights Left On - Drain The Battery?
I accidentally left my daytime running lights on today for about 6 hours. My car is fairly new - only a month old. Will this drain my battery? I have driven it several times since I noticed it but am wondering if it will drain within the next few days. Had that happen on a non-hybrid vehicle when I left the interior light on all night - battery died a day or two after that. I know the batteries on the Prius C are different than in non-hybrid cars though I admit I don't really understand what's inside my Prius. I've read the owner's manual but in all honesty, it's pretty Greek to me. Seems like it has both an electric battery and a "regular" battery. Any major damage to it?

I know all Hyundai's 1.8L Nu engines have that quiet ticking noise. But is there a slight knocking sound on the left side of the engine (around the belt area)? Could this be just the timing chain noise? It does this on idle but when on a constant speed/rpm, the engine is quiet.

ok, its been 9-10 months now, and i have only 3500 miles on my gx.just looked at the back wheel wells.
The left side of the truck in the back is sitting about 1.5 inchs higher than the right rear? I measured the distance between the rims and the edge of the panel in the back. I am baffled. I raised it, lowered it, and still unequal height. Its going to the dealer on wednesday.

View 6 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: How Car Could Be Left Without Disconnecting Battery
I was just wondering... I am in the navy so i'm called to go away quite often sometimes for extended periods.
I have read that the 12V battery will discharge itself if it the car is not being used frequently because it has the memory for everything (radio channels, time, trip meters, etc)
My question is how long is it safe for me to just leave the car parked in my driveway without disconnecting anything and when should i disconnect it?

I have a uk 2010 t4. The air con only works on the passenger left and centre left. From the RHS vents its just unrefrigerated. Ie -7c on the left vents and 0 ish in the right vents.

View 3 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Loud Whir / Grumble From Left Side
I replaced my original wheel bearings at 90-95k miles. I'm at 145k now and seems like my wheel bearings are going out again. Very loud whir/grumble from what seems like the left side. When going straight or turning right, you don't' hear it much. But turning left it gets louder and very pronounced.
I do drive fairly aggressively and have upper strut brace, lower frame stiffener and so on. Plus it's a Touring edition and I do like taking my on/off ramps with zest.
Anyways, what would be the best quality/brand of wheel bearings to replace? Last time I had a friend replace them who is a Toyota mechanic and he did it at his house. He told me he used Toyota parts. I'm the type who likes to use OEM, but these don't seem to be holding up well??

2010, 72,000 miles, regular dealer maintenance. After a stop, turning left, a "stuttering" can be felt like under the drivers seat location. Not all the time. No sound or other abnormalities. At first thought it to be a section of rough road surface, as I first noticed it at one particular corner.

View 6 RepliesPrius C :: Carpet Bubble On Left Foot Rest At Driver Side
The carpeted footrest on the left driver's side of my C has a bubbled/raised area on the left side, which causes my foot to roll inward uncomfortably. It feels wrong but it doesn't really look wrong, so I don't want to waste a trip over to the dealership if the area was just poorly designed. Do footrest accommodates the whole foot comfortably or if there is a raised area under the pinky toes? I'll see if I can get a picture.
