Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting Bad smell from a/c??

I think disgusting smells from the a/c ARE usually "mold in the ducts". The fact that you have to run the a/c on
MAX which just recirculates the inside air only compounds the problem.

Both the Jeep and Mystique have had that smell, but usually it dissipates after a few minutes.

Maybe when you first startup, run the a/c on fresh air first, then max for awhile, then back to fresh...etc.

I'd have someone who knows a/c check the refrigerant again.
