AC - Lewis6317 - 10:th-Apr-2014 Well yesterday got bit hot in the car and I was forced to use the AC but when I turned it on I had a very strange and unpleasant smell. Im thinking that could be the pollen filter but when I don't use AC and the fans are on cool I don't get a smell :( Am I wrong and could be the pollen filter? AC - JohnL - 10:th-Apr-2014 Mine does the same, from what I've been able to find out it's bacteria in/on the condenser you need something like Halfords Comma Aircon Cleaner Customer Ratings & Reviews - Top & Best Rated Products to get rid of it. Weird thing is my Elite with climate control never suffered with it. AC - Lewis6317 - 10:th-Apr-2014 Thanks mate i will get some later and give it a try :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk AC - tucpal - 10:th-Apr-2014 you should turn the Aircon on for at lest 10 minutes ones a month to keep the air con nice and clean and change the pollen filter every year as there under a tenner a few ways to keeps bad smells at bay. AC - Lewis6317 - 10:th-Apr-2014 Yeh, i will pick up a pollen filter aswell nice and easy to change :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk AC - tucpal - 10:th-Apr-2014 vauxhall change it every 3 years i think and that is just to long AC - Migwell030744 - 11:th-Apr-2014 For once they must be trying to save us money, eh! AC - Rupert - 15:th-Apr-2014 I have used Dettol Disinfectant Spray. Turn A/C on to recirculation, high fan speed, and spray up each footwell. |
