In this video I will show you how to remove the mildew smell in your car. Typically this is caused by using the AC in recirculation mode for long periods of time. Without fresh outside air to circulate, the recirculated air will develop a mildew musky smell. After long period of time operating your HVAC this way, the interior of the car will be very smelly due to mold and bacteria in the air duct system.
This video will show you how to clean the air duct and remove the smell. The method will only take couple minutes. You can repeat as necessary.
* If your vehicle is equipped with an in cabin air filter, you can remove it prior to performing this service. Then reinstall it afterwards.
=======
You can also try using an in cabin odor eliminator spray.

Dude, I've been trying to get rid of the foul odor for ages. I even forbode my wife to ride in the car bare feet to see if it got better. Nothing worked, until I saw your video. Thanks, worked like a charm!!!

Turn off the a/c a few minutes before you stop and leave the fan on to dry out the evaporator. That way there is no moisture left to allow mold to grow.

What about cars with no filter 😂

Another trick to keep this from happening too often, is to turn off the AC about a block or so from coming home, to let the system purge itself of all the cold air. The air will still be cold enough for a short time after it's turned off, but doing this will balance the climate within the vents, giving your system a fresh start next time.

Another important step is to remove the cabin air filter before performing the procedure in this video, so that the spray doesn't end up saturating the filter before it gets to the evaporator, where the mildew smell is likely trapped due to the buildup of condensation. Remember to replace the cabin air filter frequently with a quality replacement; For odor control, find a cabin filter that uses activated carbon.

This video may be 9 years old, but man what you taught me WORKS LIKE A FRICKIN CHARM!!! I just did this now and man am I glad the that stinkin' sock smell is gone.

Also, there are drains at the bottom of the air conditioning/heat vents that sometimes get plugged up and cause all of the condensation moisture to get trapped in the ducts and also rain water can get trapped. you can actually have several inches of water sitting at the bottom of your vents causing all kids of mold, mildew issues. Find out where the drains are and blast compressed air back through the vents to try and unplug them.

This totally worked!!! I had the most foul rotting fish smell coming from my AC. One treatment with the Lysol spray and the next morning the smell is completely gone. It took a total of about five minutes. You are my HERO.

This actually works! Make sure to pull your cabin air filter first if your car has one! Also, don't go overboard. It only needs 30-45 seconds.

Thanks for this. Did it two years ago and worked wonders, smell has just started to return so reapplied and all ok again. Use dettol all-in-one disinfectant spray here in the UK.
