Having a cabin air filter is a step up. Before that, the evaporator in your AC was a petrie dish of all forms of pathogens.
"Do you smell something funny?"
"No. But, you'll get used to it."
"Really! It smells like something died in your vent."
News Flash: Something did crawl in there and died.
A friend in Florida has an Outback that he loves. Over time he became less enamored with it and he said that the AC could barely keep up with the heat and humidity (Gulf Coast). The last thing that popped into my mind after considering everything else was, "Did you check the cabin air filter?" "What's that?", he asked. Talked him through removing it and behold: enough fuzz and debris to fill a small pillow. A quick trip to the parts store and it's, "I love my Subaru Outback."
AC: Don't leave home without it.
