Anyone here use those aerosol sprays that are supposed to clean out moldy smells in the AC?
Searching online I've come across a few different brands. Most of them say to spray it directly in the vents and the fresh air intake..
The last time I changed the cabin air filter in my moms car, the blower that sucks in fresh air was coated with dust and spots of mold (it's one of those air filters under the cowl, not in the actual cabin).
The owners manual says it sucks fresh air in every 5 mins to keep moisture levels down even if it's set in recirculate, so it can't be too healthy blowing that in the cabin the whole time. It'll smell strong after mold when the ac first starts up.
I've also read that dealerships have some type of ac cleaning service which I'd guess is probably something like the products I've seen for sale online.
Any suggestions or input on what you did to fix this type of problem would be much appreciated.
