aircleaner for A/C

Post by RN »

I have a GQ which I find the air out of the A/C smells stale when the air is on recirculatory, ie only cabin air, no fresh air. Smell goes away on fresh air.

You might have dirty air vents if you are into the great out doors and the A/C is just pumping the dirty air around ( a bit like ducting heating in homes...they need a clean out from time to time)

I also share your vehicle model & smell, run air con & spray some of ya mum's glen 20 in the intake. It does help. This tip thanks to a friends wedding day prank that had a nice bate smell when air was used. :agrue: :2gunfire: :snipersmile: :fist:
if you want it done properly do it yourself
