Prius (2010-12) :: Rust Under Door Sill Protector
I removed the driver-side door sill protector today, and discover some rust around the rectangular holes where the tabs of the protector get inserted. There are also small rust bubbles in the paint. (Small as in 1/16" in diam.)

I recently purchased a Rear Bumper Protector for 2010-2014 Toyota Prius for my 2014 PIP. I thought I had it in the correct position when I removed the adhesive strips to install it but realized the next day that the curvature is not lined up properly causing a gap in between the bumper and the protector. My stomach sank when I realized this error.

After 3 years and couple months my red prius in faithful service, i finally got by the wind noise everyone is talking about...
At first, I suspected the license plate frame was the issue and also checking around the front end to see if there's are anything that stuck in the bumper gap, wheel wall, and underneath the car but the noise still there.
Finally today...I do actually found it...I tested by either removing or putting on a new 3M tape over one of the screw hole underneath the door site mirror. Over time, some will peel off or break losses and the "gap" is the source for the high pitch noise when you driving fast enough on a road. Mine happen at around 55mph.
Ever since I remove the sticker, the noise gone. One thing I'm not sure why there are factory stickers there. But I decided to remove it because I saw water inside the 3m tape after raining.

Car's an '05 SE 4 cyl. Camry. The silicone strip on the passenger's side door chrome trim is coming off, and I was wondering what my options are for fixing this? Can I somehow push it back into place and have it stay there? Is it torn or simply coming off? Is it purely aesthetic or does it serve any other purpose?

2006 Lexus gs300.. Yesterday I lost all sound. No sound from the CD, FM, Tape, etc. When I turn the volume up, it doesn't even go from 1-62 nothing comes up at all. Plus when I go into audio settings, it doesn't let me adjust the bass or treble, and the mid is not even available there anymore, and the fade left to right and front to back is also un adjustable?

View 5 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: White Paint Looking Dots On Car
I went to an outdoor auto show the other day. When I got home I saw some white paint looking dots on my car. The dots are the size of salt, peppered on top of my car. I can only see it up close. I started using my nails to get them off, they started to break down and some of them started to have fiberglass looking "tails",after some effort I was able to remove a few. I can't see myself doing that on the whole car. Not sure if I should use the clay bar on it, I don't want to scratch the paint.
I'm going to try some of these tips tomorrow, but mine doesn't look like spray paint. It's like some kind of alien paint/fiberglass mix.

So I have a 2004 GTI with monsoon system and I use a tape adapter to play music from my iPhone. Most of the time when playing music if the cable hooked to iPhone moves at all, there is a loud scruffy feedback type noise coming from the speakers. I've tried a few different adapters so I know it's not that. What this annoying sound could be??

My 2013 Red Prius C started to chip on the door edges around 6 months after purchase. My guess is it has something to do with the extremely thin/light metal used to make the car and the quality of the paint. I've owned the car for 2 1/2 years now and the problem is only getting worse. The dealership says I'm the only person to ever have this issue and blamed me.
