    Sounds like maybe the blend door has some remnants stuck in it? Not that you want to sit in the car and switch modes but maybe you need to cycle it through the settings. Perhaps there is a foam seal or something that is contaminated.

    Re: Still a musky smell from air vents

    got exactly the same issue with my own Rav4. I've replaced the cabin filter, tried the bomb as well as a couple of others and a fogging machine. nothing seems to work. and its just those first couple of minutes, once its run for a little while the smell goes away again but its there every time i switch the ac on. would love to know if you find something that works
