Bad smell from A/c

Gaprofitt · 07-20-2008, 10:17 PM

Hi All,

When I first turn on my 2007 Prius there is a bad smell from the a/c, it goes away after about 5 secs. I checked the cabin filter and it looks and smells fine, anyone else experience this?

Thanks,

Greg

It has been covered extensively on this site. Try a search on AC smell. Here is one of the many threads on the subject.

I got excited when I saw your header. I thought that maybe Toy finally put out a TSB for this problem. Your in the wrong forum. Post this in the "Care-Maintenance" forum. If you want to see alot about your problem search my old posts.
