The interior of my Exige S2 stinks!

 

Yeah, ok I haven't used it much over the winter but it really, really honks. I am guessing it is a damp issue but I can't understand what is smelling. There are only three items that has and material on... The seats, door cards and dash (all Alcantara) but none of them feel damp at all?

 

Any Ideas what it is... and how to de honk?

Check the roofling for damp. If the seals have gone water gets in and can make it smell damp.

There was a chap on seloc who left a cover on for a month or so and his suede steering wheel went mouldy...

 

Sounds like windows down , squirt of fabreeze and a 90 mph blat up the motorway should freshen it up....

The car is kept outside under a cover.

 

I think it is a damp smell... but nothing feels damp at all... no sign of mold or anything.

I was out in the sunny weather today and I had totally forgotten about the smell..... until I switched on the heater!

 

So, its definitely the heater... can someone please advise me where the air path is and how to check it out? I would like as much info as possible before I attempt handstands in cockpit!
