unbelivable smell...
I drive my 135 a few times a months and its parked in my garage... last time I went to drive it, it smelled like there was a dead mouse or something, somewhere.
I have searched everywhere I could think of and its driving me crazy... I have even bought some defunkifier from amazon I will try next as well as one of those smell electrical devices (forget what they are called). Short of dissembling the entire car is there anywhere specific you think a mouse could have come in?? Has anyone ever had anything like this happen? Its driving me nuts, I have been trying to air it out for over a month... Thanks in advance!

I think person above means cabin filter.
Here's what I would do. Buy a 3 or 4 foot length of clear vinyl tubing, about 1/4 or 3/8 inch diameter Put 1 end up your nostril, block other nostril with kleenex Start at front of engine, moving free end all around for a strong smell Take cover off cabin filter and smell in there Inside car moving free end all around under the dash Check inside both exhaust pipes This should give you a start. |

Yep that's it. Just need one torx bit driver, a new filter, and about 20 minutes.

fyi, posting this in case it helps anyone in the future...
definitely mouse crap in the truck... my biggest fear is there is a dead one in here, my mechanic suggested behind the blower, going to pull it today,
