Question Stinky Interior Question

Here's the deal: I have been away for 3 weeks for work. Left my car to the care of my rommate. I get back and it smells horrible in my car now. (it honestly smells like some one threw up in it.) Now, I'm pretty sure that my roommate hasn't taken it any where, because he can't drive a stick, and he is pretty religious so he doesn't drink. I can pretty much rule out the party puker. I have had diffent smell in the car before but that was over a year ago, and haven't smell it since. Kinda embarrased about taking girls out in it. Has anyone had this problem??
(moderators: sorry if this doesn't fit the topic, wasn't sure where I should put it)

Unhappy Yecch !!

My best Guess is that you review this service bulletin:

Other than that, perhaps something got in your car & died ?

Thanks. I some how figured it was coming from the HVAC. No one else has had this problem? Maybe I should lay off the beans....

Nice Link!!

I've got a wet dog/old sock smell coming from my vents. Guess I'll have to make a trip to the Chevy dealer with service bulletin in hand before my warranty runs out in 3 months.

I had a nasty smell in mine and it turned out to mildew from a leak, the mildew was under the carpet in the pass side back seat floor. I had to take the back seat out to clean it, then patch the leak.
