In Reply to: Foul odor emanating from fan/ AC... posted by derek on July 12, 2001 at 14:21:36:

Mildew grow from condensation from the A/C. Best if to turn off the A/C a minute or so before turning off the car and turn off the air recirculation (let the fresh air in). This should help getting rid of the smell after a couple of times. There will still be some smell but not strong if you follow the procedure above. Almost every car does this


when the A/C is turned on, it disappears; but if you just turn the fan on ( auto climate control ), it reeks, especially when it's hot outside. It smells like sweat (?)What's going on?
