ITEMS I USED ON THIS VIDEO: - FRIGi-FRESH - amzn.to/3VIBoOe - KOOL-It Evaporator and Heater Foam Cleaner - amzn.to/3RM5Up8 - Drain Pan - amzn.to/3zk3O9H

Good video, been using Frigi Fresh for years. I would recommend removing your cabin filter (if present) before spraying. Otherwise the cabin filter will absorb a fair amount of the Frigi Fresh. It will still be effective, just not as much. Also, both the sprays and especially some of the foams for the drain are very bad to breathe in. So let that stuff air out

I've used Lysol and it works pretty good too.

2:43 That musty smell is usually from running the A/C and then shutting your car off without running hot air through the vents to get rid of the condensation. It's even worse if you live in an area with high humidity. I learned that the hard way.

what you can also do is if you run your AC, like 2 minutes before you get to your destination turn off the AC and turn on the heat to high, both floor and front vents so air wont condense with water inside the air ducts when they are cool and you turn off your car. just think how water condenses on a glass of ice thats happening inside the vents and there is dust and spores in there that when it gets wet Fungus Mold comes alive and stinks

I use Lysol and it works great

You said the newer car has a musty smell. If it’s a Toyota RAV4, it’s got a manufacturer service alert for leaky roof rails. I’m happy to see your video, because although my 2019 RAV4 was fixed by a dealership*, it still smells musty time to time. *one dealership charged me diagnostic fee and said they couldn’t duplicate the leak (never going back there again).

I use fix this house to help me when I need a little more information on a project around the house and seeing this video makes me feel better knowing that he knows what he is talking about i am a L1 ASE Master technician and the information given in the video and replies to comments are correct

Love this new automotive series. Would like to see a REAL solution to make my yellow headlights to be clear again.

Thanks for the tips. Just ordered the frigi-fresh can.

I have this issue with my window AC at home. Will try it.

The black coloring in the Bosch cabin filter is activated charcoal. It's there to help remove outside odors before they enter the cabin.

One of my favorite channels. Great information as always! Thank you! 💙

Thank you so much for making this video and leaving links too. My husband's car smells so bad that my son and I refuse to get in it. I will definitely be buying some of these products.

Very well explained. I had that musty smell not that long ago. I'm definitely going to try this ☺️

Oh my goodness! Thanks bro!

Works better with no cabin filter. Lysol also works great too since it’s kills germs.

1 thing I never recommend is to Never, Never jack up any car at the radiator support frame. It's not ment for that kind of weight support. Only lift up at jack support points on sides of vehicle.

Great info for my allergies

Step 3 should be step 1, replace cabin filter first then do the other steps if its still smelly. For your step 1, you have to switch it from recirculating to outside air, then you can spray in the cowl area. For step 3 some cabin filters have carbon which looks black.

This was very educational! Thanks!

Great thanks

Good information

Thank you for the video. Do you something similar for flushing out your home a/c pipes?

Definitely trying this! Thanks! Also, regarding the suv ac, any idea what might cause for a driver’s side left ac vent to blow weaker air? All the vents are in the open position.

Awesome video…Very helpful👍👍 Thank you!

Thank you for this video is a great one

Great video! Thank you!

Good to know!!

Very well explained. Thank u ! I am gonna do all three so my work truck can smell better.

Thank you sir good video also I have questions my car 11 Honda odyssey only two vent air top the redid didn’t work how can I fo

Excellent video!

Toyota sells a kit for cleaning the evaporator coil and it flushes out all the mold and mildew!😎😎😎

should you remove your filter before doing this?

Perfect thank you so much!!

Great video my friend, especially when you have different passengers riding along, your interior can start to smell after a while from body orders, colognes, pets riding along, even from that musty stench when entering your car from a downpour, your seats & rugs get saturated & the order start kicking in, whew. I'm always using carpet powder deodorizer to neutralize the stench, let it sit in the rugs for about 15 minutes then vacuum. Lots of different brands out there, I usually use the Arm & Hammer products. Really enjoy reading everyone's comments too which is helpful on some other tips they throw in from their professional background, which is helpful and time saving, then trying to think of a million things to type in that search bar. Look forward to some more of your videos.

Can you PLEASE do a video about how to get rid of those stale orders in a window air conditioner? Also, a video on how to clean a window air conditioner.

Just run your fan the last mile or two before you get home (without the AC off and the HVAC venting fresh, outside air) and you won't get this problem to begin with. Preventative is better than fixing the problem.

I bought a used 2023 Toyota Tundra, that had pretty bad cigarette order. I ended up buying an ozone generator, I out in it the interior of the truck, let it run. I have programed hitting unlock unlock to lower all or the windows and open the sunroof. Oder has been gone and never came back.

great video, thanks for sharing.

Looks like you had the recirculation on while spraying the outside vent…

Thank You for Much Needed Knowledge*

Thanks 😊

Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻

How is the spray content gonna go through the cabin filter?

Awesome video

Thanks

What about window AC?

can change cabin filter too

How do you get the walnuts out of the vehicle I guess they put them in there because of the nice smell

Great explanation, thank you! Do I leave the recirc button on or off?

Another great video but quick question about the evaporator drain when you go through a car wash and do the undercarriage glass which shoots water up under the car does that cause any issues with the AC drain?

Thank u You so much…..!

Thank you 😎✌🏻

good tips

Nice.

NEVER DO THAT AT 1:55. that could burn your window fuses. Do it one at a time, no two or more at the same time.

Your HVAC doesn’t have to be on the recirculating mode?

My 22 Explorer doesn't produce evap drain water .

Can fridgie fresh work on EV cars, Teslas?

I have a dusty smell coming when I turn on the heater, no smell with cold air. will this fix my problem?

I Love this! Thanks for the help!

Ha do all of them, new car 😊

You missed a key step the AC needs to be with outside air intake open you showed it was in recirculating it won’t pull any air in the way you showed it

I have a video suggestion. My garage is tight on space lengthwise, and I'd like to link an additional light to the garage door eye beam so that I know when my car has just cleared the garage door path, and I can maximize the space in front of the car.

You could use a ozone machine .

Just change your filter

👍👍👍

Good tips, but that engine sounds horrible.

His pull out game weak 👀

what can you do get rid STOP Musty Moldy Bad Smells Coming From Your Car’s AC And Heater Vents Permanently

I only smell the musty smell when running through vents when AC is not on. Would it be ok to do this same procedure without turning on the AC as that is the only time I smell the musty smell ?

Fabreze through the outside cowl intake vent.

Use a onion it’s cheaper same thing old car dealer trick

Lysol is all you need... So you don't have to go down the rabbit hole watching

Why does an evaporator smell so bad if it's internally sealed???😮😮

Just change your cabin filter that’s all you need to do

I feel like this is the ultimate OCD cleaning

will this work for mouse smells? Thanks

That spray Wil junk gonna mess up evaporator core

It's like radiator stop leak it clogged up the radiator over time

Dealership charge for the not unclogging ac condensation drain pipe. That spray ain't gonna work
