Roosta Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 Does anybody else experience a mildewy smell coming from there vents when they turn there AC on?????This has been going on since i bought this preowned gs300 2001 for about a year now???? It seems it may eventually go away once it blasts on high for several minutes..but still seems to linger there.....I was told about a disinfectant that could flush it out but chances are it would return.....something to dowith condesation build up in reservoir....If that makes anysense......HElP.........................

TurboGS300 Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 My 93 had the same problem. I opened the out side air vents and flushed them with water. There is a drain down low on the passenger side , you will see water coming out. It will be nasty probably. I then got access to the condenser and cleaned all the mildew off with a rag and flushed with some general purpose cleaner. Last but not least a shot of GIO over the condenser and my car smells awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAKATK Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 I seem to recall previous links on this, and some later models have a filter you can change. Do a search or maybe someone more knowledgable than I will recall this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbostar Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Yeah, sounds like your cabin air filter is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
