is there any kind of smell you can compare them to? Is it musty, sour, smell like rotten eggs? Did you maybe leave food or something in there that you forgot about? I've been guilty of that one before lol

I noticed the rotten eggs smell again today on the highway, but the problem is that my car has 2300 miles on it, so the cat. should have been broken in already.
