My heat/ac progressively started smelling horrible over the course of the past few months. I guess its kind of a moldy vomit like smell. It was originally when the car turned on for just a few seconds and then went away. Then it started all of the time. Someone suggested that it was the cabin air filter or something, but then I was informed that Integras dont have those and was told to purchase a spray. This spray was sprayed in the vents and in the air vent under the hood. That worked for about a week and now it smells like somethings dead. Car has been well maintained, runs excellent and exhaust doesn't smell bad. Any ideas please?

If you figure anything out I'd like to know too!

Sounds like a dead rat or sometihng. I have the same problem but it goes away after a bit.

Ya it doesn't really bother me too much but I'm trying to sell the car this week since I just bought an s2k I'm panicing because I wouldn't buy a car that smells like mouth diarrhea.

Might have a plug drain tube from the a/c evaporator.

did yall set you air controlls to circulate before you stored them either way you should pull the blower motor out i bet you have had a nest in it take some bleach and clean some of the stuff off in there

Something probobly DID die in there. like a mouse or something. Its pretty common i guess. people have talked about it before. so take apart the dash and see whats in there

I've only had my honda fit sport for about a month, and today my ac vent suddenly started to smell chemically, like nail polish remover. I've been reading all over the net that it could be mold, but this is not an organic smell -- it's very chemically.

Does anyone know what this is?

First thing first see if the drain tube is clogged up. Next best thing to is pull the blower motor out. You have direct access to it from under the passenger foot well. Start their

I agree w/ what others have said...take a look at the blower motor, drain tube. Sometimes the drain tube gets clogged and mold will start to grow in the evap box.
