Apologies for the hijack, but would this also apply to fan/AC that's smelling rather.... well, smelly really.

There's no problem with temperature, just the pong. Fan also steaming up the car more than I suspect it should, I have to have the AC on most of the time.

Presume something just needs cleaning out.

They clean it out and you can opt for a deodoriser if you wish, think thats a 10r extra

Bah, just phoned one and they only top up the gas, they won't clean it - air con specialist needed for that apparently.

So my local one said anyway :mad:

Temp all good, just a suggestion and quick fix,check your pollen filter, may not be that at all,give it a go anyway.

....or just throw away the pollen filter (unless you have a couple of chronic asthmatics travelling with you).
We all managed for many years without them .

It's called a pollen filter, but some believe that it's only there to stop you getting a fright when a fly bursts out through an air vent .

Nice one!

I got the name of an aircon fella from my garage - they thought it'd be about 60 quid - I never actually found out as he doesn't answer his phone and his mailbox is full :mad:

Unfortunately I'm going away for 10 days in my car with my smelly a/c tomorrow, so no time to get it sorted first. But I'll be onto this as soon as I get back.

Cheers for the link OP

I'm tied up all day today (not literally! ) and need to leave first thing tomorrow so it's the smelly a/c I'm afraid. Or hope it stops raining and I can leave the roof down
