bad smell
hi,
i have a bad mouldy smell in the car. no cofee spills or pets. i suspect 2 things:
1. some sort of dirt accumulation under the windscreen wipers tray.
2. air-con bacteria
where can i find a guide how to dismantle the tray?
what are my options regarding cleaning the bacteria from the air con? do you have a product you can recommend?
thanks a lot!

I m new here but I just read a thread the other day and someone referenced another thread about this very same thing. Something about the drains for the windshield cowl getting stopped up. It said to remove the drivers inner fender liner and there was a drain in the back of the fender that needed to be cleaned out. Of course this caused water to come into the drivers side of the car IIRC.
