What exactly stinks and how do I clean it?
Car's got 98k miles and I put all of em on.
Naturally after all these years, it stinks inside. How do I "clean out the smell"?
What I've tried (and is not enough):
- vacuum the whole thing
- febreeze the mats and carpets
- seat covers over the seats
- always had fan on at least low setting to prevent mildew from building in the vents (successful)
- air fresheners just mask the odors
But it still smells. Smells like 98k miles of sweat, pizza, rain, weather, shoes, spilled splattered cokes and punch, etc.
