When I turn on my air with the temp on cool, or w/the ac on, it's musty and wreaks of classic pacific northwest mildew. Goooooooood times. This is particularly the case when the airflow is set to draw in air from the outside.
Where does the air channel through before entering the cabin, and how can I clean whatever it channels through? It's gross and frankly borders on toxic I suspect. Damn the pacific northwest mold! --------------------  |

I thought our car didn't have a cabin air filter.

QUOTE (GriffGirl @ Jul 3, 2008 - 8:48 PM)  I thought our car didn't have a cabin air filter. It doesn't have a proper filter. What it does have is two foam pads. A long thin one for outside air and a more rectangular one for recirculating air. They don't do much more than keep large particles out of the aircon unit though. -------------------- Davey
