easy........ dont use plain water, the water has turned stagnant - empty the bottle and flush thru with some neat windscreen wash or water and a strong milton fluid mix

Mine smells like crap sometimes and all I do is put half screen wash and half water seems to cure it. But if you need to empty it just use your windscreen washers and headlight washers saves disconecting owt..

Hi....I've got this same problem now....when ever I do the windscreen wash and the fan is on the car it just totally wiffs the interior out with a sicky smell. It doesn't go for a while either. What is this Milton thing??

Milton is like a sterilising fluid, get it from any chemist, mums use it for babies bottles etc...
