strange mildew smell

(1/4) > >>

Rollingrock:
Ok, I am stumped, my truck sits indoors 90% of the time, but now I smell mildew...any ideas?

I am am totally stumped.

Too Stroked:
Water getting in through a weather strip somewhere? Your first job will be to find the water - or the mildew. If it was an F-150, the first thing I'd go for is the CHMSL, but yours is a Super Duty. (Still worth a look.) The HVAC system can harbor that stuff pretty well too. Can you smell it with the heater or defroster running?

Rollingrock:
i smell it when the truck has been sitting for a few days...I get in and it hits me...its mild..

I did just get out there and make sure no "hidden? watter bottles were under the seats..hit the leather with KR leather product, then hit the air vents with NLD. 

Very odd.


Poorboy:
do you have a cabin filter?

may also want to try Air Freshener / Deodorizer

you can also spray the NL into the cowl vent with the heat or ac on

gipraw:
I would check/replace the cabin filter ,

then try a box of baking soda sitting open for a few hours..
