I’ve just bought this item from Halfords at half price. I was getting a stale smell when the air con was turned off, not when it was running. Well I followed the instructions and I think it’s improved it but still get a whiff of the stale smell on my first journey after using it today. Hope it improves further. Helpful video though.
No this sorted the smell out, we hadn’t had the car long so it was sat at the dealership for a while not circulating air, I’d rather try a couple of cans of this before paying for a dealership to change filters but it all depends on how old the car is and how well maintained, if it was not maintained very well I would have changed everything, we actually had a full service around 5 months of having it ✌🏻
It cleared the smell then I used fresheners to give it a nice smell, the bad smell was from the air conditioning usually when it has not been ran bacteria can build up so once it was neutralised there was no smell 👍
The smell hasn't returned to date, we bought the car from a used dealer so the AC prob hadn't been ran for ages properly now we use it constantly and all is fine 👍

Thank you 🙏
Very helpful
When you switch on air con do you put it in cold or on the warm up temp
I can’t remember sorry I think I had it to average temperature around 22
Thank you for this video, much appreciated!
Did you open the vents like it says?
You have to run the ac so it gets into the system
What about the cabin air filter? Did you replace it?

Did this work long term?
