Power with Control
Cold be a leak in your heater core, which you cant see under the hood, its actually like a small radiator buried inside your cars heater plenum, a boxlike thing inside your dash that all A/C and heater air gets routed through. when you select heat, coolant gets routed through that radiator, in that part of the plenum, forced through that core to get warmed up.

this is why your inside air wont be warm until the engine heats up.

A quick but not exact, way to determine between it being mold growth or a leakey heater core would be the stench itself. Modern coolants, and even older ones, dont smell nice. When your car is cool, take a whiff, NOT a snort, of your cars coolant overflow tank, see if its the same as your getting from your vents inside the car.

See, here is where we meet a dilemma. My thought, after smelling it for a little bit, was that it DID smell like radiator fluid. Argh, now I have to actually figure out if it is an issue or not :lol:

Is there anything I can do, like, putting on my heat/defrost/etc to determine if there is a leak or something?

Do you think it could still be a leak if I didn't have my heat on this morning? I mean, I DID have it on last night on my way home, but it hasn't been on since :shrug:

Haha that blue mustang with its glow and all his retarded friends go from parking lot to parking lot nascar style. Stay far away from them because none of them can drive.

I wanted to piss on one of their cars (there was a reason I was being driven around and not driving myself :buddies: :lol:) but then I thought better of it because there were probably 10+ of them and I was only there with two companions :lol:

anyway, the reason I specifically picked that car was because he was being a jackass pulling up honking and radio blasting, ect :lol:

In hindsight...I probably should have just dont it :ohwell: :lmao:

You should have just covered yourself in dodo. Then you could have done whatever you wanted and knowbody would try to fight you.
