We had some great weather with temperatures in the high 60s, and low 70s recently which made the AUTO temperature setting in my car start blowing colder air from the vents.

I noticed a funky, wet sock smell coming out. It doesn't always smell funky but whenever the cold air stops blowing intermitantly and (what seems like) when the outside air flows in, I get this smell of "toe cheese" into my cabin.

Has anyone else had this problem? I called the dealer and they said they would take a look but most likely I'll have to replace my filter. Even though I have only 3000 miles on my car they are saying I would have to pay for a filter out of pocket ...

Anyone aware of any spray or something that I can apply to my filter or have any suggestions?

 

That moldy smell should not be the filter, however a a faulty condenser can lead to iffy smells
