Hellooooo,

Wondered if anyone has had to remove the smell of spew from their car, and if so, wanna share how you did it successfully?

There was an accident last Wednesday and basically my entire back seat had orange juice thrown up all over it. Also the mats, floor, back of one of the seats... it was professionally cleaned straight away so it looks fantastic but the smell is still rotten. I thought professionally cleaned meant the smell was included in said clean, but apparently not...

When it dried, it was No Vac'd but that just smells like its covering up whats underneath. Its not too bad when you first get in, but go shopping and come back after the cars been in the sun and errrrrrrr :down: you get the picture...

The plan was to sell this car to get my Skyline , but nobody will want it smelling like this.

TIA guys :P

febreeze. spray it everywhere and leave the car open so it can evaporate. it gets rid of smells, rather than mask them

may as well give it a go. its only like $5

my gf forgot a bottle of milk in her car for days, and there was some spillage :down: i used this to get the stench out, and it worked well.

if that fails, you're gonna have to remove the seat, and wash it properly.

Thanks guys! - gotta say the petrol and match option sounds good, but thats taking the easy way out LOL

I found the only way to remove the smell after washing it a little was really strong vanilla essence, leave it for a while and it will wear off but at least it helps get rid of the spew smell.

Like on Seinfeld haha.

Tell the spew-ee that they just brought themself a car.

LOL go and find some bum on the street n throw the keys to ur car at him n see if he will take it. Ya prob can't even give the car away now :blink:

Bum sees Jerry throw keys in car and walks away. Bum walks up, sticks head in car.... :thumbsup: . Haha.[/episode] Ehh back on topic. That sucks bigtime man. second the 'steam clean and frebreeze type deoderiser' notion.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
