Full Blog Post here: Tesla A/C Smell That Wouldn’t Go Away – Finally Fixed
Highlights:
After extensive testing, YouTuber Adam Davenport found that a plastic clip on the bottom of the Tesla Model 3 or Model Y cabin air filter helps keep moisture from saturating the filter and causing that foul vinegar/moldy/cheesy/feet smell! Check out Adam’s video for testing and installation details and give him a like and subscribe.
He’s freely offering his version to print for yourself or for others to make and sell, but we made our own version that’s easier to install and fits the OEM Tesla filters better. They’re available here:

Even if they look fairly clean, it’s worth putting in a fresh set of filters to rule them out. We recommend these filters because they come with some helpful tools to do the job:
Cabin Air Filters (Amazon)
For cleaner, we prefer DWD2 over other options we’ve tried because they give you more product and we prefer the starch-like scent:
DWD2 Evaporator Cleaner (Amazon)
