Air conditioning fousty smell
I've recently bought a 7 series and when I turn the air con on or off the air that comes in through the vents smells like old socks! I understand that this is a build up of fungi or bacteria in the system and it can be treated with an aerosol product. The problem is that I haven't had use of one before and would like to know if there are any stand out products..?
I'm asking you guys because from my recent experience the 7 series forum seems to be dormant! |

When you turn on the AC does a puddle form under the car? If not, then it's not draining the condensation.
The sprays will get rid of it temporarily if the hose is clogged, but it will come back. Some people take the whole thing out and spray the unit inside and the ducts. That way it lasts years instead of weeks.
