FUNK

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Yup, had to make my own reusable cabin filter. Just cleaned it a couple of weeks ago, caught so much dirt. Pretty disgusting.

Anywho, it's suggested that you turn off the AC and put the fan on "fresh" air a mile or two before you destination to, I guess, clean out the system of the AC since it causes moisture (???) if left on until the destination, and will let mold grow (???), which is what causes the funky smell? I haven't dealt with the funky smell by following that.

Have you checked the drain hose for the ac, to be sure its draining...Backed up water collecting in the ac will stink....

I highly recommend Klima-Cleaner. Can be readily available online. Have not seen it sold locally. It's under $20 but worth every penny. I used it on my 09 and it eliminated that wet dog smell instantly. Still have plenty available incase my 2012 has the same issue.
