This message is in reference to the subject of the musty a/c odor. I have
experienced the same musty odor in my vehicles equipped with a/c and a
temporary fix was to spray Lysol into the fresh air intake for the hvac
system while running the a/c. Make sure your system is not set on
recirculate because you want to pull the Lysol through the system. I find
that a 10 second burst of Lysol does the trick. Wait for the Lysol to
completely blow out your vents before getting in and shutting everything off
or you'll get it blown into your face (not very pleasant). This will have to
be repeated occasionally because the mold and mildew will start growing
again after awhile but it's an easy and effective fix. I got this tip from a
Cadillac TSB.
