    The dealer uses a two-step cleaning process for the evaporator. They spray the product up the drain tube. I recommend buying it at the dealer but if you feel better getting it on Amazon and risking a Chinese imposter have at it

    Any update? Did you do anymore cleaning? And if so, what did you use and did it work?
