Camry 2012+ :: Black Paint On Back Of Muffler Peeling / Chipping

Seems like the black paint on the back of all our mufflers slowly but surely disappears. I'm guessing high heat - flat black (if such a thing exists) would be the way to go.

Toyota - Sienna :: 2013 - Alloy Wheel Swapping?

I have a 2003 Toyota Sienna with standard factory alloy wheels and tires on it. The wheels are 15" x 6.5". A few years ago I saw a Sienna with different alloy wheels, and I really liked 'em. I have been seeing the same (likeable) wheels on Camrys recently; in fact I found a guy who's willing to swap his wheels for mine. Thing is, Camry wheels are 15" x 6", a half inch narrower than mine, and I have not been able to find the same style wheel in 15" x 6.5".

I've done some research and found that the bolt and bore pattern are the same, and offsets are close (within 7mm).Assuming the wheels mount up and don't crash into bodywork or suspension or brake parts, is this swap a mechanically sound (or at least reasonable) thing to do?

My 2012 Sonata is flaking in the grey area on the steering wheel around the cruise and volume controls. Is there a remedy? Would it be covered under warranty? It's nothing major, but annoying none the less.

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: 2010 S - Leather On Steering Wheel Flaking And Peeling

As the title says, the leather on my 2010 S steering wheel is flaking and peeling. There was a bad spot in the leather of the original wheel at the 12 o'clock position when I took delivery. The dealership replaced it and now the new wheel is doing the exact same thing in a different spot. It is from the 7 to 9 o'clock position. Nothing rubs in this area, I do not put my hand in this area, I don't wear anything sharp on my hands like rings and there is no way my skin is rough enough to shred leather so I am assuming it is some sort of defect in the material.

Passat (B7) :: 2012, 2.5 SE - Clear Coat Peeling Near Trunk / Rear Panel Area

My MY2012 Passat 2.5 SE currently at 37k miles all of a sudden is showing clear coat peeling near the trunk/rear panel area. Car is a CPO and clean carfax (no accidents) and currently still under warranty. Planning on taking it back to the dealership and hopefully start a case for warranty work under VWoA.

I've never encountered clearcoat failure this early on, case in point my B5 (MY1999) still has excellent clear coat uniformity despite the paint/body being 17+ years old.

Camry 2012+ :: What Are The Wheel Weights For

I have some rectangular weights bonded to my rims just behind the spokes. Are these to balance the rim before a tire is installed or is this how the tire and rim are balanced on the alloy wheels? Maybe to keep from putting the normal wheel weights on the outside of the rim?

Camry :: 2004 - Headliner / Ceiling Fabric Peeling Off In Rear

Think this is a Gen5 thing, but both of my 2004 Camry (XLE V6 and SE I4 specifically) has this issue. My XLE V6 is more obvious versus the SE I4, but seems to be following the same path. Guess even with car tint, our hot weather has worn this headliner edge. I have not suffered from the crumbling rear speaker cover though.

Thinking of getting some 3M adhesive spray and try see if I can apply it manually (maybe to a cotton pad or sponge then to headliner) to put some on the edges to keep it from getting worst.

Camry 2012+ :: Noise Coming From Wheel Well Area

Tonight I went out to get something out of my car, I had not driven the car in about 5 hrs. As I opened the back driver side door, I noticed a noise coming from the wheel well area. It was a quiet noise almost like a very quiet motor running, but it was very prevalent. I went to the passenger side back wheel and could hear it there also. I've never heard anything like this. Opened the trunk and listened for the noise but could not hear it there. After a few mins, I started the car and let it run, then shut it off and the noise disappeared. Only thing I could think of was a fuel pump malfunction?? I honestly don't know.

So I've had the 2016 Camry SE for a couple months now, however I was wondering to clean the interior of the car, specifically the steering wheel. I do drive a lot long distance and city driving as well and sweating on a hot day is practically inevitable even if its just a bit. But how to clean the leather/steering wheel of the interior.
