Clothes come out of the wash smelling clean, then a sweater left in the wardrobe for a month develops a stale odor. The cupboard isn't visibly damp, and other fabrics seem fine. Could leftover detergent, body oils or low...
The air conditioning is properly cold on the highway. Sit at two long traffic lights and the vents start blowing barely cool air, then recover when I get moving again. Engine temperature appears normal. That makes me won...
