    A few days ago I asked PRIUS CHAT "What is the source of this sound". Since I posted this thread I have received many replies with different answers. I now think I can answer my original question. I stated when I open the
    Prius P driver side doorto get into the car, there is a sound under the engine compartment of a motor runnining - rrrrrrrrr" for about 9 seconds .
