Bad Smell!

[Rex4Lif3]

I went to work this morning and parked the car. It was sitting outside for 8hrs went to get in it and this horrible smell was inside, looked all over and could not find the source.

any ideas as to what could cause this in only 8hrs

a thick sweet smell like candy could be coolant leaking out of heater core

sulfury rotten egg kinda smell could be plugged/cooked catalytic converter

just plain rotten smell....could be an old club sandwich somebody forgot under the passenger seat

ok smells like nothing i have ever smelled before >< opened up the doors and the stink went away.. took it for a spin and nothing.

gonna let it sit for a bit to see if the stink comes back

30ish mins later and the smell started to build up again...

You run over a rotting animal? Maybe hit a bird and its rotting wedged in the radiator or a squirrel got wedged between the exhaust and floorboard?

could it be mold? evaporator drain could be plugged

I was going to ask the same thing.

But describe the smell. Where does it smell stronger? I used to clean cars for a living trust me I have smelled it all. Best one was a dead rattle snake under the dash.

Could be a dead mouse or a mouse nest somewhere near you heater vents, I've had them get inside the blower for the heater and they reak might want to check that out.
