Parking for two weeks?
I have seen some posts of people having problems after parking for more than a couple of days. I am going to be going on a tour that starts in another city, so I will be parking my new RX-450h for about a two week period. Will I be coming back to a dead battery? What systems should I turn off when I leave to preserve the battery power while I am gone? Or should I see if I can leave it at the Lexus dealer?
Thanks for your help.

Leave it at home. If it doesn't start when you get home, call Lexus to come and start it. I would never leave my car at a Dealer for two weeks without a work order. I doubt they would take responsibility for it without a work order. Chances are it will start. Have a great trip!

The 1 800 number for Lexus works anywhere. They will send someone to start your car if required. I really doubt that it won't start due to being parked for a week or so. Now go and enjoy your trip and don't worry about your car!

i have 3 different Lexus RXh hybrid and a GSh hybrid which tend to be garage queen back and forth for 3-4 weeks, no issue with battery,
the older GSh however, has issue with the anti-roll bar motor battery being flat and gave error message, other than that they all been solid

Unless you battery is defective it should be able to go two weeks without use with ease.

Trickle charger
I will be gone for more than a month. I usually put a trickle charger on my cars while I am gone in the motor home. Does the rx450H have a starting battery? Where is it? Should I try to hook up a trickle charger while I am gone? Help.
