Vinegar smell

Strange situation. New x7 50 msport. 2019.
On delivery drive home noticed a strange string vinegar smell. Seemed to b coming from vents. I thinks it related to the AC or something. Have not figured out exactly how to reproduce it i.e. air-conditioning on or off, Autoon or off etc. obviously not adverse to bringing it in to get checked out but for something like this I would prefer to wait given the current situation and I would hate to go there and not tell them how to reproduce it and have them keep it for 2 to 3 days. Does anyone have a similar experience?

Do you have the ambient air option and if you do it maybe the smell of one of the cartridges ?

No. I don't. I had it I'm my 7s and vinegar is not one of the fragrances!

I realise it's not an ambient air fragrance in the same way it's highly unlikely you have vinegar in your AC but thats how you described it ! ..... it was just a suggestion ...... good luck resolving it.
