Removing damp smell
 
I have recently drained my pool and spa in my ZT. I entirely removed the interior (Inc carpet) to allow the carpet to dry thoroughly. The carpet sat on my drive for nearly a week in our helpful heatwave, and we're entirely dried out. The inside of the car was completely dried and sunroof drains were fixed before the interior was reinstalled.

Unfortunately, my car still has that fusty, damp smell inside. Anyone got any suggestions on how to remove it?

You could try a smoke bomb, can be bought from the like of Halfords etc. Follow the instructions and it will help but time and other scents will eventually help the most.

Try cleaning out the plenum chamber and replacing the cabin air filter before using the aircon cleaner bomb.

Thanks for the suggestions, I shall try them.

Already cleaned the plenum and cleared the bung. New pollen filter is planned before she gets back on the road.
