Hullo, theres a slightly sour/musty smell coming from my air vents on my 147 1.6 it has air con but not climate control. The smell happen regardless of whether the air con is on or not, i haven't looked at the pollen/cabin filter yet but suspect it could be to blame unless anyone can advise me otherwise?

cheers

As well as a new filter(s) it probably needs a good A/C treatment sprayed through to clean it out properly.
You remove the old filter(s) then follow the instructions on the can of treatment and finish that before fitting the new filter(s).

The one I've been using is a multi-use can that I got from RS-Components a few years ago, but they don't do it anymore.
I'm not sure what I'll use when it runs out, so recommendations would be good for me too...!
