Take it to a Toyota dealership and change your own cabin filter (it's the easiest thing to do)
I can\u2019t smell the windshield wiper fluid since I switched to a Fram filter with charcoal in it.
I change my oil+filter every 5k, engine+cabin filter every 15k, and CVT Drain and Fill every 60k (just once so far) and have not noticed anything weird or concerning.
Oh and there was evidence of a rodent’s nest in the cabin filter.
I use Fram FreshBreeze, usually buy on eBay. Bought once on Amazon, it was a knockoff in Fram packaging. I wouldn’t use it.
I’d just get the standard FRAM, WIX, or so on if you wanted better airflow. If you don’t have bad allergies I’d just get regular since the benefit isn’t really noticeable otherwise, and then you get worse airflow.
This happened to us with 2023 sienna after a dealers oil change !!! It turns out that they didn't close air intake filter cabin correctly. We were drive up to Canada at the time. We had to stop time to time to stop the warning. Check the air filter cabin and make sure it secure.
And somehow its 50 to 70 bucks or whatever to change the cabin filter but they already took it out to show me and they put it back.... which is why I change oil myself....
After having a fram cabin air filter in my dad's frontier reduce the airflow out of the vents by a good 15%-20% you guessed it... dealership
Now, I just replaced the cabin filter on my (new to me) 2021 Kia Soul for the second time in 9 months and the new one which is a Fram, smells so musty and stale when it’s on recirculate, I might just replace it with another one to see if it makes a difference. It literally smells like stale moth balls. If I take the filter out and run it, smell goes away.
