Arrow Weird smell
What's up all

So I got a buddy with a 2010 lnf and the inside or his car stinks like vinegar...we searched everywhere for the source. Anyone had this happen or know about what it is or how to fix it.

Thanks.

I don't think so he's had it for two years and it only started this summer. We been reading that it could be the ac. But it dose not seem to come from the vents.
