HiCan anyone assist me with this one. The air con in the car is fine and is efficient but every now and then a horrible smell appears from the air con when it's on. Smells like sweaty socks or a dirty dog's blanket! Any suggestions please?Many thanks

Sounds like bacterial build up in the aircon system. Comma sell a product for disinfection http://bit.ly/1AxvOgTAutoglym sell one on amazon too:http://amzn.to/1uVBD7G

I got the kit from Europarts for £4.99 with free delivery! Halfords wanted £11.99

The item I got from Europarts actually does 3 treatments and at £4.99 incl delivery is ideal. The Nissan's smell seems to have gone but will keep an eye on it!

Now that you mention it we do sometimes get excessive steaming up. Can the drain be cleared at all? No sign of puddles under car though. Also is it easy to replace the filters? I'm not that weel up on air con systems
