If your fan is noisy as well you may have a dead rodent in it. Also your favorite scented Lysol will do the same trick. With the fan running full blast on fresh air mode spray some on the cowl holes just below your windshield towards the passenger side.

Stupidity: 1
You: -1

with friends like you who needs enemys. Are you proud of yourself? You certantly sound like you are...........

to the OP

There are several things you can do.....sprray a sanatizing solution in your vents and your heat outlet. Before you do that you might want to make sure that your drain plug for the A/C is not blocked...

If it's what I think he's talking about, it will be described as such.

20 year old magazines in a gym locker, mixed with Flatulence from a dinner of Turnips. During Summer months, it shifts to where you'd swear the Turnip dinner was substituted by a Boiled Cabbage and Beer Bash!

There's a real incentive here to get it taken care of
