How to Get a Bad Odor Out of Your Used Mercedes-Benz

Whether you own a new or used Mercedes-Benz, a bad odor can ruin your enjoyment of it. Luckily, there are some steps you can take to get that odor out of your new or used Mercedes-Benz. Here are some tips so you can start enjoying your luxury car to the utmost once again.

1. Get rid of the offending substance. You can’t get a bad odor out of your used Mercedes-Benz if you don’t find the source. If your kid spilled milk on the floor, you’ll have to soak that up first. If someone left a fish under your seat three weeks ago, you’ll have to find that before you start cleaning.
2. Use charcoal. Charcoal is one of the best odor eaters that exist. After cleaning the smelly area, place an open bag of charcoal near the area. It will soak up the odor. You can even crush up some briquets to cover the area and vacuum it up later.


3. Get caffeinated.
Coffee grounds are great for absorbing odors. After brewing a fresh cup of coffee, place the wet coffee grounds in your used Mercedes-Benz. As they dry, they will soak up the odor and leave the pleasant aroma of brewed coffee in your car.

If you own Mercedes vehicles, you want everything to be just right so you can enjoy your luxury car and show it off to others. A bad odor can be embarrassing. Get it taken care of by using these tips and you’ll enjoy your car even more!

    We purchased a 2007 S550. The Air cond system puts out a very foul smell (odor)?? The dealer has changed a filter and even cleaned the air system. Why does the odor return? Intermitted,but everyone has smelled it.
