Gen 1 cabin air filter location

Thank you, I'll take a look.

 

Yep folex works like none other to pull out ground in stains and grime. I mainly use the tuff stuff afterwards just for the scent, I find it embeds the scent into the interior better than anything.

 

Yep there's one there, one that runs behind the panel by your knees under the column and one behind the center dash above the radio, all really easy to remove, and you can get to a lot of the ducting once they're out. Careful with the center dash piece there's a few hidden screws.

 

Awesome, great info, just what I needed to know.

 

Go back to the same kid and ask him if they have any light bulb oil and see if he looks? Poor kids these days.

 

don't forget the blinker fluid unless that is the same product?
horn fluid!? my beep beep is sounding kinda dull these days

 

A tip I was taught years ago is simple and seems to work (when a house I bought from a smoking family was near choking with smell).

Put shallow dishes of vinegar out for a few weeks. Inside a daily-driven car might take some creativity, but there should be options.

 

Put some ammonia in plastic container leave over nite. Next day take ammonia out open windows ammonia smell will go away repeat as needed works good for cleaning as well

 

Toyota dealer will change your cabin air filter for a fee whether you have one or not. Don't ask how I know.

 

they will also change the turn signal light located in the corner marker light too!

 

Saw you coming they did

 

Let us not Threadjack Jay.

 

Or start a new thread on dealer rip offs, sounds like we all have a story or two.

 

@GQ7227 Do you should

 

Get a ozone generator off Amazon. They work great and will eliminate almost any odor including smoke/mold.

 

Agreed, cat pee will overcome smoke smell and any other you need to mask.

 

With the engine on turn your vent selector to outside air then spray lysol into the cowl vent . Spray half the can thru the cowl vent while selecting ea vent location

 

Large bowl of vinegar set in the truck for as long as possible with the windows rolled up.

baking in the hot sun = bonus

 

There’s this odoban stuff at Walmart I use(Not for smoke smell, but a mildew smell I had). I sprayed it all over the carpet, and a ton of it in the vents and let my truck run on full A/C for about an hour.
