If your A/C emits a foul-smelling stench, it may be time to call in the experts. Mold and water could be the cause of a strange-smelling A/C. Your cabin air filter might be dirty, damp, or blocked. In excess moisture, the evaporator can become clogged with mold and other debris. If your car experiences a loss in air pressure, it could be an indication that either the blower motor has failed or there is a restriction in its evaporator.
Your cabin air filter should be checked if your car is experiencing a musty odor. Mold and mildew can build up in the cabin's air filter, which could be the cause of the musty odor. Also, a clogged cabin water filter will reduce the amount of air coming into your cabin. This will cause damage to the alternator and drivetrain.

After the vehicle has passed the visual inspection, refrigerant levels have all been measured and there have been no major malfunctions, the technician will then perform an evacuation process and recharge to determine if there are any leaks. The recharging process begins after the entire system is vacuumed. The recharging process adds refrigerant and a leak tracer dye into the system to identify potential leaks in the future.
It is important to remember that an AC with a problem should be fixed by a professional. The law prohibits the release of refrigerant in the atmosphere. Special recovery machines are required in order to comply. The vacuum must be present when filling the AC unit. The system will be affected by moisture and air.
