Once in a while...theres strange smell(most probably from the aircond).
Dont know how to describe the smell. Last about 1/2 to a minute everytime.
Any of U guys ever encounter this? Nil evidence of bad leakage from the
engine. Will chk again..........Anyway happened about 5 times.

Some continental cars have a pollen filter for the airconditioning. Could
the Nabira have this too? If so, the filter may be clogged. I remember
that in the Volvo S60 there is such a filter and it needs to be cleared
on a regular basis.

I suggest you check with SC on this.

Hi Kay Es,

Yes, could be the pollen filter clogged. I just changed pollen filter at
60K (as reccommended by agent).

I had that smell before if I switched off the rear air-cond. But now I
don't smell it anymore.

Please do get it for a quick check. It could be a gas leaking. They can
check it quite easily with a sniffing device.

do keep us informed when you resolve this problem. you may want the SC to
check the aircond hose going to the rear. May be something unwanted in
the ducting.

with my finding.
