Default Odor remover or solution for mouse urine

My Z was violated my mice while be stored for the winter.
The little bastards packed the air intake and ventilation system with
dog food.

I have it removed at the Nissan dealer, also had to replace the interior
fan and they also screw up the voltage amplifier.
My problem now in the stench of mouse urine. I tried several things to no avail.

I notice the smell in worst when the fan is set to recirculating the air.
Is there some type of filter in the heating/air system that can be replaced?
The smell is all coming from the ventilation system it didn't get in the carpeting.
Any ideals?

i dont think the z comes with a filter for the air. Have no idea why...... GO NISSAN! Thats why is smells like old wet rags.

but anyway,

good luck! That seriously sucks. I've heard stories about mechanics finding rats and stuff in cars. i always thought it was a myth. haha

Have you tried renting a steam cleaner from your local grocery store and cleaning the interior?

Nature's Miracle would be worth a try. It can be found at most pet stores and some big discounters. It is a natural enzyme that breaks down biological waste such as urine and feces. Other than that it's bleach n water, but that don't smell to good either

I found a dead frog lying on my plastic underpanel when I pulled it off to put my clear reflectors in.

I would have to agree with the Nature's Miracle as an attempt to get the smell out.

I would set mouse traps next time.

And on a more serious note, you will not be able to cover the odor. Nor you will you be able to clean it. The urine is potent. Replace the carpet and padding. Wipe down the floor with a solution of bleach and water.
