Most users praise her for sharing this amazing hack.
One person said: “Omg, thank you for this.”
Another said: “We have the same car. Thanks for the idea.”
A third pointed out: “You’re a genius.”
However, car experts at Rusty Autos say that drivers should avoid spraying their cars with oil-based fresheners.
Spraying your car with your favourite fragrance doesn’t damage your vehicle.
But essential oils will block the filter, which is bad for the heater and cabin comfort.
And before spraying the cabin filter, drivers should remove any dust from them.
If you are thinking of doing this hack, you can find the cabin filter behind the glovebox, in the footwell or in the air intake under the hood.
TikTok is full of hacks to get rid of smelly odours in cars.
@canadadrives says that filling a washing liquid cap with some distilled vinegar will improve your car’s smell.
The natural disinfectant is a well-known cleaner and helps remove odours from the air.
Another hack is sprinkling a bit of baking soda over carpets and letting it sit for a couple of hours before vacuuming.
