    If you say that there are no visible problems with your air condition, then you should take a look inside. I think that it has nothing to do with broken or burn out the power steering pump, because of it it is impossible to have such kind of smell. You should try to take a look on filter, maybe it's thumbed by eucalyptus lives or something like that, idn. Or it can be that there are lives or similar in your ventilation system, maybe because of heating they start to smell, but the best advice would be to ask specialists try them spartamech.co.uk

    Its likely a dead Koala Bear inside the blower housing or ductwork.
