justme Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 Hi,Hope someone will know the answer, when I turn on the vents or the air con a terrible smell comes from the vent. The easiest way to describe it would be just to tell you how the kids would describe it " like old people", their words not mine!! Any thoughts as what it could be? Quote
tiny Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 Have a look into "Sick Car Syndrome". This refers to a bacterial or fungal build up on the condensor of an air conditioning system that not only makes the car smell but can make you sick too! Do a google on it. Quote
Guest BagPuss Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 http://www.wilco-fastfit.co.uk/wilco/assets/images/Air_Conditioning_Cleaner.JPG # Effectively eliminates bacteria, fungi, moulds and viruses from the air conditioning system, which cause unpleasant odours, hay fever symptoms and other allergic reactions.# Deodourises upholstery and carpets to bring back that new car smell. Got it for mine, but unfortunately as i found out later my Air Con doesn't work! :blink: Wilco Quote
El Dingo Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 It could also be a damp cabin filter, caused by blocked scuttle drains... Do a quick search - this has been a very common thread. Quote
