Roylewaa Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 When I have my heaters on full chat on hot I get the occasional strong hot celery smell That's the only way I can describe it, quite pungent like celery Anyone have any suggestions what it could be?

Roylewaa Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 I removed it to inspect it a while back and it was full of leaves and crap which I cleaned outIt was dirty, how does that cause the awful smell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roylewaa Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 There was loads of dead leaves and bugs in there but nothing substantial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jax Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Try a can of Air-Con Cleaner, despite the name it should still serve well as an air vent de-bug. Put air-con on max, turn on re-circulator, put the can behind the passenger seat, let it rip and run away from the car for a few minutes.Coupled with a new pollen filter it made mine smell fresh 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
