Car stinks of teriyaki
I have a 09 camry se. I went to a beach bbq and brought marinated meat. Foolishly, I brought the meat and the marinade. It spilled into my passenger seat. I've sprayed foamy stuff and steam cleaned the seat and carpet behind the seat but the smell lingers. I suspect there's some marinade in a place I can't reach. does anyone have any advice on getting to parts of the passenger area under and/or around the seat?

I think the stuff got absorbed by the cushioning itself under the seat's fabric. In this case, you're totally screwed I'm afraid.
Anyone remember that Seinfeld episode when Jerry had the lingering body odor (BO) in that BMW 5-series?

Taking the whole seat apart is an option.

Is there a guide to taking the seat apart or do I need to search? Also, shamwow is a scam. My roommate has some and they don't work.

Not that i know of, but i'm sure you can figure it out as you go along.
Just dump a bottle of fabreeze on your seat lol, that should cover up the smell

baking soda. i think if you leave it in the car in a container and let it air out for a few days then it should soak up the smell. atleast this is what a friend did when he spilled gasoline is his brand new FJ. but he did do other stuff before that so we not sure if that was what finally got rid of the smell.
