the funk
 

So I'm driving to work today and about 30min into my drive the air in my car starts to smell. I dont think anything of it until it happens on my way back home. I picked up a mate and he thought it smelt like BO. Well it wasn't either of us smelling up the car, and after a bit of driving it doesn't go away.

So i try turning the a/c on and that kinda helps for a bit but then the smell starts coming through just like before. Now remember i have climate control so for the most part its set @ 22c and its untouched for months at a time.

We pull over and pop the hood, but there is no smell coming from the engine and everything appears normal. Get back in the car adn we can really smell it now having been outside the car for a moment.

My first thought is I have mold in my air system, or a bad airfilter. Have any of you had this problem on your cars? Any ideas of what this could be?

smelly car... smelly car...


jfwy rob, sorry bro, dunno what to tell you...

well i flew home after my meeting tonight and i didn't smell anything.. so i dont have a clue whats up

maybe a dead cat was under your car...

could very well be the cabin air filters. Have you changed them recently?

that happened to me... just popped out my spongebob air freshner and by the time it wore off i couldent smell it anymore

did u step into something ? was your underwear clean that day ??;) :loco:

...hehe, spongebob rocks..and i just noticed today that you had one, jay... ;)

well guys the smell seems to have gone away. It was back once last week, and i'm wondering if its driving related. If you noticed I get horrible milage, and maybe its smelling because I'm driivng her really hard?? I have no idea, she sounds great, sticks well but smells once and a while.

Is it time for a new car?

dude maybe it's because the smells comes from the outside like dumptrucks and factories

someone stuffed a dead person in your trunk
