Thank you! As I'm doing more research online about it... I found out it's normal. Have you noticed there's another clicking noise at 20mph? This second one is less noticeable. I guess it's a new car thing.
 
Over all I'm very happy with my new Camry.
 
Thanks

Air coming through vents even in Off position by dtownfb

Not really a problem. Does anyone else have air blowing from the center vents of their Camry even when the position knob is in the off position? I have a 2006 Camry LE and air comes through the center vents. The faster I drive the more air comes through. The side vents don't seem to have this problem.
 
has anyone else experienced this?

I'm pretty sure my 2004 LE does this also, although I usually have the fan on.
 
I don't remember if the center vents can be closed manually (I always have all 4 -- side and center -- open).

The middle vents can't be closed manually like the side vents. Not really a problem, just like to know if this is normal or not.

You can baffle the flow a bit by putting the system in defrost/defog/demist while you have it on and then turn it off. You might also try putting it in recirculate and then turning it off but many systems will defeat that procedure.

I checked on the way home last night -- you're correct that the center vents can't be closed. I noticed air flows through all 4 vents with the fan off (and the side vents open of course).
 
Sometimes I use this when the weather is not too cold; that is leave the fan off but turn the temp knob to warm.

The only time it is an issue is if the temps are in the 80's and I choose to leave the windows open. The air coming through the vents sometimes gets warm.
 
I've only had the car two months so I am still figuring everything out. Love the gas mileage.

Agree on the gas mileage!

You can prevent that by turning the system to maximum cooling and then turning it off. By simply turning off the reheat/remixing door/vane may be left in a position wherein a goodly portion of the "natural" airflow is heated.

Thanks wwest. I'll give that a try tonight.
 
While I have everyone's attention, has anyone upgraded their radio in the Camry? the stock radio is pretty boring.
