- I can't imagine that Lysol wouldn't work-if you can stand the smell.
-
- Also, I don't know a thing about Lasers, but spraying something in there
- would only be a band-aid effect. The problem is either that there is a spot
- where the fluid that's supposed to drain is accumulating and molding, or
- there is a leak in the drainage system. Either way the system should be
- opened up and looked at carefully. You shouldn't have to worry about something
- like this in a brand new car.
-
- Also, there may be some sort of air-filter in there that's causing this
- problem as well, but opening it up will take out the guess-work.
-
- Good Luck
