Hi Everyone, I have a very stupid question, I tried washing my hybrid in an automated car wash this morning, and failed 3 times!! I am unable to put the car in neutral, so it either zooms through (because it is in drive and is also dragged through the car wash), or goes in park. Does anyone have a Nexus CT200, do you use auto car wash or should I only go to the ones where I move my car myself instead of the rails? Please could you let me know, my car is covered in shampoo and I am concerned that it is damaging my car. thank you all!!!

 

Have you ever thought about going to a manual car wash and using the rinse cycle to get the shampoo off of your car? How about a hose at your house?

 

atomchick,

My 2007 Toyota Camry hybrid and my Lexus ES hybrid have both been through numerous automated car washes with no issues. You have something wrong with your CT that possibly could make it dangerous to drive in the rain.
