Best way to get that old car smell out?

[chinchilla]

My e30 cab smells quite bad, im use to it, but passengers always complain!

Whats the best way to get rid of the smell? i have cloth seats.. so i think it might be them but also smells when the blower is on..

I always use a spray airfreshener in my cars, currently chemical guys leather scent in the E30, C/g New car smell in the Yaris.

Make sure you spray down the vents when you use it as there is normally a build up of bacteria in the ducts which can smell a bit funky.

Might be worth trying something like febreeze or the like. just be carefull not to get it onto the dash plastics as itcould mark.

The best way to fully remove any smell in a car interior is to have it fully deodorized by a professional valeter.
They inject a antibacterial agent into the carpets etc and then go to town on the cleaning using special equipment.

BMW also offer this service, Prices vary.

I'm due for one shortly. Not jab, but a good scubbing over...
