smelly air wtf

[MattismodderX]

ok so i turned on my air today and it smelled like straight up ass. i have no idea- not sure where to begin. ac was no on, just air - and it didnt go away on a 30 min drive... rhea

[AbHeLlRaZoR]

maybe something crawled into some part and died. check your air filter, maybe the air outside stunk. I'm not expecting my ideas to be useful but hey there ideas lol or check your speed stick LOL JK JK JK :lol:

Mold, or something really did get into the heater box behind the glove box. Newer cars have cabin filters that catch crap that gets in there. Our aleros dont have one, so what ever isnt caught by the screens under the wipers, gets sucked in there. I cleaned a bunch of crap out of my blower motor when my blower resistor went. There is a foam you can spray up the evaporator drain, that can help clean and kill mold, but if its a lot of big junk, youre going to have to take it apart and clean it.

We dont use this where I work, but the same thing.

Ask you friends if they pulled a prank put some anchovies or other fish in cents or something. If not do the above.

it smells like straight up ass. it smelled after my neighbors lawn crew was done. they also sprayed my car with so much grass. omfg an hour after i put tire shine on

[AleroDrime]

[Oldsnut]

Does it smell like Crap or Rotten Eggs?

Wash ya own ass, it may solve the problem of you only smelling it in closed quarters with moving air circulating it into your face : D jp...but what is the smell?

That may be the cause of your ass air, I say clean it out real good, and spray air freshiner.

cut grass? wouldn't you have a fresh cut grass smell then? Do you have kids perchance? Off wall question, but spilled milk gone bad or little kid presents are not what adults always like. And they just do the darndest things.

You probably would have that fresh cut grass smell, unless there was something in the grass. You never know, the lawn people don’t usually check for pooh before cutting.

its a mixture of the smell of straight up feces and rotton eggs. smell is constant. i just blocked all the vents cause even with the air at the smallest circle.. air still moves through.

Something in my car now smells of musty death. The colder it is the lighter the smell is and is more musty but today when it got a little warm (40d) WOW OMG it smells of musty death. I can't find out where the smell is coming from. When I get the car warm from the heater it goes away a little from the fresh air. Any ideas?

[Kilroy]

Could be an animal in the vents or under the hood??

Please, for the love of GOD, do NOT be burnt voice coils!!! :lol:

Check to make sure as a prank one of your friends didnt stuff a pound of hamburger under your seat...

[lonnie]

I vote for washing your ass....LMAO....LOL!

Seriously though maybe a mouse or something died in the engine bay.

[JLw7123]

ya a mouse is the best thought when it gets cold they tend to build nests in the air vents because it is warmer.

[cherrington17]

take the glove box off, back behind that you'll see a big gray bubble like thing that all your vents connect to... pull that off. clean it... reassemble.

thoroughly check under seats, carpet, etc for meat left as a prank. Is it only coming from the vents? Pop the hood, and smell around, check under the car...

[MattismodderX]

Please, for the love of GOD, do NOT be burnt voice coils!!! :lol:

that is a horrifying smell. the smelly air problem i had went away over time. no idea why lol

[2004alero]

maybe it was liquid ass a prank spray. or maybe you steped in a pile of dog shit and rubed your feet in your carpet (or a passenger). www.liquidass.com

I found the smell, FINELY, it was the passenger seat. I know what happened too, I let my brother use the car once in the winter and someone did not wipe the snow off the top of the passenger door, snow got in, hit the seat, turned to water and then just sat there. Now I am just washing the smell out of it.
