Ladies, gentlemen,
I discovered a weird problem. When I turn off the AC, the air that's flowing into the car smells like urine or something similar. It doesn't matter if it's circulating the air inside the car or taking in the outside air.
When the AC is on, however, there is no weird smell.
What could cause it? Could there be a rat nest somewhere in the ventilation system that's peeing into it? Or, worse, something dead and decaying in there? But then again, how come the AC eliminates the odor?
The winter is coming and I don't really need to keep the AC on anymore, but because of the smell, I kinda have to.
Oh, the car's a 2014 PIU.
Thank you!
