I haven't driven my car for a couple of weeks as I was out of town...and today when I sat in it it smelled really funny. I keep my car clean and the cabin air filter was changed recently, so I can't figure out what that smell is. Could it be the cleaning/conditioning material I use? Any ideas?

 

might be a dead rat or mouse under ur hood.

try,, rinse ur engine.

 

shower?
usually fixes the problem for me!

 

good one!

 

I notice quite often when someone posts a question a few smart-ass members change the topic and start talking about absolute BS.

 

i have my N.

Why do you have to take it out on N drivers?!?!

As for your question...no one can really help you out unless they have been in your car.

We dont know what your car smells like. For all we know, it could be anything.

 

Maybe it's moisture turning into mold?
If you're parking in a garage, leave a bit of window open.
Leaving a piece of paper towel can help absorb the moisture too.

If nothing else works... just air out your car.
Can't help ya much.

 

Wow... I take real offense to that N bash, especially after my license got suspended right before my class 5 exam, so I have to wait another fcking 2 years. There'll always be people throwing some jokes, and I don't see anything wrong with that. The quality of our local forum is much better than other sections. Anyways, I'd agree with toaster it could really be the smell of mold.

 

I apologize if I offended anyone...and I just removed the N comment. I just got a little offended at people making a joke of what to me is a serious question.
