How to properly maintain air conditioning in BMW 1 Series?

My 2016 BMW 1 Series air conditioning seems to be emitting a musty odor. How can I fix this issue and keep my air conditioning running smoothly?

Hi Samantha, the musty odor may be a result of mold or mildew buildup in the air conditioning system. To fix this issue, try using a disinfectant spray specifically designed for air conditioners. Simply spray the solution into your air vents and let it circulate for a few minutes before turning on the air conditioning again. Additionally, regularly replacing your cabin air filter can also prevent musty odors from developing.

Hi Samantha, regularly running your air conditioning on its maximum setting for 10-15 minutes every few weeks can also help prevent any mold or mildew buildup. This will help circulate fresh air through the system and prevent any stagnant air from creating an unpleasant smell. It's also a good idea to have your air conditioning inspected and serviced by a professional at least once a year.

Hi Samantha, another tip to maintain your air conditioning in top condition is to regularly clean the air vents. Dust and debris can easily build up in these areas and affect the quality of your air conditioning. Using a small brush or compressed air can help remove any blockages. Remember to also regularly clean the interior of your car to prevent any mold or mildew from developing.
