change teh pollen filter and run some antibac stuff thru (if its got aircon)

any chance it was floodeded out?

carpets etc come out easy but nobody will bother to take the dash out to fish out the floaters after a flood

we have a few flood cars come thru our place, they stink like fuck

It might be the cold/hot air blowing on his sweating pits thats giving off the smell
