I wouldnt bring it to the dlr for the TSB they had to keep my car overnight to finish...to get the smell out the AC use "ozium" its one of the best odor and smoke eliminator

To be honest, I had a stankin' mug in my car a while back... just roll with the AirCon on and the windows down for a week or so, it'll air out. If you spray any air-fresheners you can pretty much kiss that new-car smell good-bye.

you could spray lysol into the outside air intake with the AC on..or spray lysol under the dash so the fans can suck it in

usually works when cars have that musty/moldy smell, but in theory it might work...
