This is a new problem with Toyotas! I’ve noticed a smell and no water drips under the car and the AC drain isn’t clogged! Where does all the water go?
It depends where you live but it sounds like it all evaporates away.
I have a lot of leafs n dust on my fresh air intake. does anyone know how i could take it off for cleaning?
Great job 🙏 how much was the oem Toyota stuff?
I am not sure 100% without digging for the invoice but I think ~$30-40
I just paid $47.00 plus tax for mine today.
Does every Toyota Leak from under the passenger area?
Not sure exactly what you are asking but our Prius was not leaking no. However, when doing this treatment, yes; it can drip a bit from the cabin air filter and HVAC housing if you use too much foam too fast as it builds up but that is temporary while doing the cleaning.
I think he meant to ask if the drain hole for the AC is always on the passenger side.
how long did this last you for?
As of now still good. But we do live in Wisconsin where it gets cold and dry in the winter so for a few months out of the year there is no humidity or heat for mold or mildew to grow. I was reading it can come back of course, as the conditions just need to be there for mold to grow if you live in a humid or damp. We found that the mildew mold smell that I was treating with this came after a particularly hot and humid summer.
But isn't it just a dropper of condensation. Can this affect mildew smell
Yeah; the issue is if you live in a humid climate or over time mold can build up in the condensation outlet as it never dries out. So just like a towel or carpet that never dries out it can lead to mold.
