Air Con Re-Circ Intake Vent

Hi All,

Wanting to try to reduce/remove the smell that comes out of the vents when first using/turn off the Air Con.

I have been recommended a product to try, that needs to be sprayed into the intake vent for the recirculation of air. Where is this vent on the D4?

Thanks, I've found it in most of my other cars too. Just not got the D4 with me to take a look right now.

Do I just look for an opening/pipe under the seats?

New pollen filter and an aerosol air con bomb in the car.
Place towel on back seat, place aerosol can on towel make sure it cant fall over, engine running recirc on and a/c set to cold and fan set to full speed, activate aerosol can shut door and wait until can has emptied takes a couple of minutes.

Thanks for the advice on running the air con bomb process, but that solution I am looking at is not an aerosol canister type. Its a solution that you have to manually spray directly into the recirculation vents, or vent area. It is meant to be more effective....but who knows! lol

Its for this reason I wanted to try to find out the actual location of the re-circ valve. I will take a look under/around the seats later tonight.
