My family is doing food business, did some deliver with our latio every morning. Had many cars before this since 10+ years ago.

Every car we had will have some sort of after smell since we deliver food in the morning, together with the sweat smell. It's very hard to get rid, keep buying air freshener, put pandan leaves, wind down windows for few minutes whenever I drive. All who sit in our car will comment.

Now with latio, we never had the after smell anymore. Not a slight smell. The ionizer is definitely working very well. Tested and proven with real life examples.

I don't see why another ionizer is needed.

side track abit...
this is one of the main reasons why the original OEM for Latio cabin air con filter is white. Due to in build ioniser, charcoal type air con filter is not really needed to reduce the smell.

Eh... i can't describe the smell... :-p but the smell is really different from normal cabin smell. I hope u din use any fregrance as it definitely cover the 'chemical' smell..


Yep, did not put any perfume or fragrance in my car. But when I start my car .... I will smell some funny smell then it gone.

I dun think the 'smell' u r describing is the 'chemical smell' that i am talking abt. By right the smell should come when the display show 'ION' (below the fan speed indicator).

If your ioniser is working, you will most probably smell like burning smell instead of chemical smell ?? My smell when on the aircon when starting the car is like stale smell. Only a few seconds and it gone.

either my ionizer not working or my nose not working  :D
i cannot detect any smell at all on or off the aircon. :confused1:
But i do encounter that "sour" smell before i do servicing. After changing air filter during servicing, never encounter anymore.

when I first change my cabin air filter at 30k, it looks like charcoal type filter... black with some funny things on it. If you have not change it for some time, get one from our forum member. It may be the source of the smell.

That 'stale' smell, i think almost every other car has it, when u turn on the fan without the aircon. After a while it will be gone, expecially after u on aircon. All cars that i have driven are like that...

Dunno why also....
