    I have had my Gen2 for almost 50k miles. I finally changed the cabin air filter. It was super ugly. See pic.

    Post a pic of your cabin air filter (especially if it is super ugly).

    PS I should changed the cabin air filter sooner. 06012021_prius_cabin_filter_ugly.jpg

    The water vents at the bottom of the windshield are probably clogged.
    Front condenser is probably clogged. That’s really hard on the compressor.

    Still don't think you're going to top this one.

    Likely a complicated day for all involved.

    Shoo, none of those filters even approach what I have seen. Although Chap's chipmunks are pretty cute and if we saw that filter, it would probably approach a few of mine of past years. Pasted below a photo I posted here several years ago when some industrious white-footed mice decided to set up housekeeping. Of course, it is not the cabin filter. My criteria for replacing the cabin filter used to be how many holes and how much "pee smell" the cabin filter had....I screened off all access several years ago and now only replace the cabin filter every two years or so, vs. every month. kris
