Musty odor S60

posted by  someone claiming to be volvotech66 on  Wed Sep 29 02:01 CST 2004 [RELATED]

there is a function called "after blow" which starts the coupé fan for 10 minutes after the vehicle been parked for I guess one hour. This function blow away and dry out condence water from the AC system inside dash, where water and microbiological particles can develop causing odor.
This function should be activated in your vehicle but it might been turned off, and then you get this odor the first minutes after start using your vehicle.
In todays production this function has been turnes off to save battery lifetime, but can be activated again by your dealer.
