Help me get the funk out.
Reply #5 –
I just went through this nightmare with mine. My filler neck bezel was cracked and let water into the trunk.
I ended up pulling all of the insulation off the back that I could, then I took laundry detergent with bleach alternative and washed it and let it sit until it completely dried. Then I took windex with Ammonia, soaked it, and let it dry again.
A couple of weeks later it was smelling musty again.
So I pulled it back out and soaked the back of the entire trunk mat with straight bleach and let it dry.
Then I bought some Meguiar's odor eliminator and sprayed the entire trunk with it.
So far the smell hasn't come back.
