At end of summer around mid-Sept I stopped using A/C and began to crank up the ACC2 temp. For first two weeks or so whenever I start up ACC2, I didn't get the sweet heater core leak smell described by so many, but rather I got a kind of mildewy rag smell that seems common in cars with A/C, where remnant condensation in the hoses tend to promote mildew growth. No fogging of windows though. Since then the smell hasn't come back.
Can I assume this is not indicative of a heater core leak and just the usual A/C mildew ? Is there an effective way to rid this mildew smell ?
