Wonder_Boy Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 I think its just part of the car. If i set it to 85 on both sides and get going it really smells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwiener2 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 first time it's on this season? It's a hot water based heater, so fire shouldn't be a worry. It's probably just dust cooking off.

AShoe Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Yeah, blower motor or shorted wires. Should be easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vr4Legacy Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 when was the last time you changed your cabin filter? Some hot air across and nasty dusty filter isn't going to smell good either. Start with the simplest first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
