Hello Guys.....


My car was in garage for quite a long time. I just removed it from garage and it smell really bad. Just like a old perfume. I cleaned it from top to bottom but no use :x

Please suggest.
George

Pull all your seat and carpet out.

If you still cant find it, pull out the hood lining.

Then:

Door trims,

Dashboard,

You will find it eventually!

Could be a dead mouse! Dead mouse fart is bad, but usually goes away after a few weeks.

I suggest locking it up for a few weeks in storage. Then if the smell persists, go see a car dealer!

Good call!

Could also be the stuff burning off the engine or the cat converter.
