Well, for some reason after I turn my heat on, after about a minute it starts to smell like pure [censored]. No dead animals in the engine bay. One day it was fine, the next morning it was disgusting. Kinda odd, but anybody know what the damn deal is?
Since this problem started suddenly, and occurs a minute or so after you turn on your heater, it sounds like it could possibly be a leaking heater core. The smell of antifreeze is usually pretty distinctive though, and you should be able to distinguish antifreeze odors from other stuff.
Could also possibly be mold from trapped moisture from the airconditioning system, due to a plugged condensate drain line.
Does the odor occur with the temperature control in the "cold" position, and using other air outlets, like the defrost or vent settings?

No its just with the heat on, I haven't tried the AC seeing as how its winter. I bought a cabin air filter and some cleaner for the vents, I'll see what happens. I know it's not antifreeze, it doesn't smell like that.

I hope that works for ya. Somehow, I don't think a dirty cabin air filter would give you the problems you described overnight. I know its too cold to turn on the AC, but I wondered if you got the odors when the temp control was turned all the way to "cold" or when you used the defroster or vent settings? It looks like it would be pretty difficult for a mouse to squeeze into the ductwork, die off, and cause that kind of odor problem. By the way, you don't have any "friends" that might be playing games with your car, do ya?
