Truck smells like farts in the morning

[Burban22]

I’ve heard some YouTube reviews complain that aging GM interiors, especially ones with the fake leather smell like sweat, wet dog, sour smells as they age. I have a 2003 suburban with the fake leather seats and even after shampooing the carpet twice I still have the damp, wet dog sour sweats smell especially after it’s been sitting overnight. I’m in the desert so dampness isn’t a problem. I guess I could Febreze the crap out of the carpet and seats?

I also have a 97 GMT 400 with cloth seats. No odd smells. So I’m blaming the fake leather.

Made any enemies?


Not saying I ever had the thought or anything, but you can buy that stuff in Jars.
I play a lot of "If, then How?!" games with myself.

Do they smell like your farts or randoms?

A rotten egg smell is usually an 02 sensor sending a false lean signal to the PCM, it tries to correct it by adding too much fuel.

If you disconnect one of the primary 02 sensors and the smell goes away on cold startup then you found the failing sensor; it will turn on the MIL light but it won't try to adjust the fuel with it disconnected.

I would try the passenger side first, if that doesn't make a difference I would reconnect it and try the drivers side the next day

Hey @RoadHoe … are you a real person or a 9 year old kid pretending to be a robot on the forum? Where’d you go Bro?

I used to have a Subaru like that. Velour seats. I'd rip a paint-blistering fart pulling into the garage and my ex-wife would complain the next morning when it puffed out of the seat when she sat down. I kid you not. I always wondered why that marriage didn't work out until just this moment.

On these, it could be anything from a water leak to a dead mouse. None of the construction materials are particularly farty.

I'm just here as proof that fart jokes don't stop being funny as you get older.
