Well, Vios and Innova new owners, are you experiencing any sulfur or rotten egg ordor in the cabin and the exterior of the car when your car engine and your car air conditioner is running??????

I am one who is currently inhaling sulfur ordor everyday as my car farts at its own mood and I have to wind down the window everytime it does that. Imagine a driver doing that few times a day for another 10 years as my car is only 7 months old.

What did the service staff said as most of you may want to know? "Remove your car mats." I complained that the ordor is coming from the air conditioner vent; in stenches. My car has no smell in the cabin and the smell will appear when the engine is running for some time (the ordor comes and go when I wind down my window). If the mats are smelly I will smell is everyday.

The staff mentioned that many vios owners are facing same, but no innova users have complained...so I'll be the first. As I read in many articles; it is very possible that the new catalytic converter is the main problem faced by many users of many toyota models in the USA from 2003 till 2006. Thus, I am wondering whether they shipped the defective parts to Asia.

At the moment the service center will work on sealing the gaps near the air conditioner as it is possible that the sulfur is leaking into the cabin from the rear air conditioner system (innova has 2 separate system). I'm saying this as they have already cleaned the front air cond coil and sealed whatever gaps they can see but they missed out the rear air cond system.

I only worry that the catalytic converter will damage my engine in the long term.

Do share your experiences if YOUR TOYOTA CAR STINKS!!!
