I’d be curious what changed in the plenum.
I see up to version D on eBay. Going to have to look at our car tonight and figured out exactly where this part is located.

No, you don't need to leave the HVAC on.Is this documented in the Owner's Manual? I suppose the HVAC needs to be left on. That is not something I'd want to do.
For the last few days, I've had an unusual smell coming from mine -- but it's nothing like what has been described yet here on the forum. It smells more like a cross between paint and mint. So it's not a bad smell, necessarily... just an unexpected new smell.
Any ideas?
If you forget to turn off the AC during your last 5 minutes then just run it that way for a few minutes after you park.
Mobile Service did not replace any parts, just cleaned the evaporator coil and replaced the filters for $168. I brought up that I have read that the inner plenum needed to be replaced and the tech told me that they had resolved the issue in FW. So, new FW supposedly leaves the HVAC on for 5 or 10 minutes after you leave the car the help ensure that the excess condensation is taken care of.Mobile Service is on the way to my house right now to hopefully replace the inner plenum. I'll update this thread when the work is done.
Last summer I did the foam cleaning just to have the smell return by the end of the summer. This summer, since the car was getting it's two year service done, I opted to have the filters replaced. That also worked for a little while, but I started to notice the smell again.
Now I'm trying the "cabin overheat protection to no a/c" trick and that seems to be working.
I installed the hepa air filter and it fixed all the smell issues.

Under Safety and Security, I believe, there is a menu option for Cabin Overheat Protection. It has 3 option, Off, No A/C, AC.What is the cabin overheat protection to no a/c trick method?
Which filter did you order?
