Replying to: mncamry (Nov 05, 2008 8:43 am) (From a fellow 2007 owner......in Canada......lotsa winter, snow and salt!) Your 07 Camry probably has sufficient intra-body rust prevention, but if you want to be sure, find a shop that does good "intrusion" oil spraying and have them use only new hydraulic oil inside your rocker panels, doors, trunk lid, etc. And remember, don't take your car through any mechanical car washers, winter OR summer.....unless they are the touchless variety. Always HANDwash your car for a longlasting finish. My '97 looked like new when I gave it to my daughter last year.....with 224,000 kilometers on it.

Replying to: notmybmw (Nov 07, 2008 6:45 pm) I use the mech. car washes all the time without any problems. They do a better job than the touchless do when real dirty and the ones in my area all use cloth strips and no brushes that scratch the finish. My 3 year old car looks as good as it did when I bought it. Also when I sold my 4 1/2 year old Colorado crewcab the paint looked just like new.

Replying to: dmathews3 (Nov 08, 2008 7:38 am) I don't trust the mechanical car washes for fear of scratching the paint. I either hand wash the car or use a touchless car wash. You're right in that the touchless washes don't get the car completely clean. Horizontal surfaces will typically have a light film of dirt on them, and the lower vertical surfaces (like behind the rear wheels) will have visible dirt on them. But they are effective in getting the salt off in winter. Replies to this message: kiawah (Nov 08, 2008 5:45 pm) 210delray (Nov 08, 2008 6:25 pm)

Replying to: 210delray (Nov 08, 2008 4:44 pm) "salt off in winter"????? what's that? Replies to this message: 210delray (Nov 08, 2008 6:25 pm)

Replying to: kiawah (Nov 08, 2008 5:45 pm) Do you mean salt OR winter?   We don't have much of either here anymore either (central VA).

Maybe we in the Midwest can share some extra winter with you this year. Snow, winds, ice, salt, bad drivers in SUVs, etc. Replies to this message: wwest (Nov 10, 2008 9:52 am)

Replying to: notmybmw (Nov 07, 2008 6:45 pm) Thanks very much for the advice. The local Toyota dealership had soemthing similar to say as you did.

Replying to: imidazol97 (Nov 09, 2008 8:32 am) Around here when the snow flies 'bad drivers in SUVs, etc,.." can't hold a candle to over-confident and/or inexperienced FWD and/or F/AWD vehicle drivers, SUV or not.
#4656 of 4934 White powder substance coming out of vents by Robinator Dec 05, 2008 (6:40 pm)
About a month ago I started getting small white powdery flakes coming out of all my vents when I turn the heat or air on. I thought it may be the Hepha filter, so I changed it and its still happening. Has anyone else had this strange issue or any ideas what it may be?   Thanks,   Rob Replies to this message: wwest (Dec 06, 2008 9:27 am) sewcoolsue (Dec 06, 2008 10:51 am) wwest (Dec 06, 2008 5:33 pm) patrickht (Mar 18, 2009 10:06 am) 650spx (Mar 18, 2009 2:08 pm) imidazol97 (Mar 18, 2009 4:35 pm) wwest (Mar 18, 2009 4:41 pm) and 3 more... wwest (Mar 18, 2009 4:37 pm)
#4657 of 4934 White powder from air vents? by notmybmw Dec 05, 2008 (8:34 pm)
Hey, so some Japanese factory worker smuggled a kilo of blow in your heater system.   How lucky are you?????   Inhale, close your eyes, relax and float downstream!!!
