Bad Smell when running cabin air
I have a 2008 FEH, last week we started noticing a bad smell whenever we ran the cabin air. Upon investigating, I lifted up the black plastic crowling near the windshield wipers, and found mice had built a nest next to the cabin air filter box. Once I cleaned up that mess, the smell was gone. I have no idea how they got into that area. Anyone else had a similar problem?

Re: Bad Smell when running cabin air
When I purchased my '06 (used) I found that mine didn't even have a cabin air filter to begin with. Not sure how the previous owner went about with the HVAC on and didn't notice.
