Foul smelling heat and A/C
#12
i bought my mom’s 2012 Land Rover Sport only 75K miles. Excellent condition although when it rains the AC spells just like cat.... we changed the cabin air filter but could not find the AC drain to shoot the cleaner up into. Anyone know what we can do to solve this major issue without having to spend a fortune at the dealership?

I had the same issue in my 2008 LR3 HSE since I bought it from the previous owner. I followed the advice below, but using this product: . I accessed the drain off of the passenger footwell, confirmed that the rubber hose was draining under the car by pouring a small amount of water in the hose. I then ran the hose toward the evaporator and emptied the can. Following the instructions, I let it sit there for 20 minutes and then ran the fan for 20 minutes. There was a small amount of white liquid (1-2 oz) in the pan I placed under the drain. I let the car sit overnight. When I ran the fan the next day, I can smell a much worse smell, so much so that we had to drive with the fan off.
Any ideas for what might have gone wrong? Could some of the foam/liquid be stuck somewhere in the evaporator core?

Not an uncommon problem and is caused by mildew and mould forming in the moist atmosphere of the a/c system. You need something like this Amazon.com: Interdynamics 760 Auto Air Conditioner A/C and Heater Duct Cleaner - 4 oz.: Automotive
to clean and disinfect it.
