Last week I had to have a full interior valet on my Zafira. Don't ask... Problem is with the wet weather and lack of sunshine it has now been damp inside for a week and is starting to smell bad. Not as bad as it did before the valet (really, don't ask...) but bad enough. The carpets are still damp, I have pulled them up at the edges and the foam backing is wet.
Any tips and tricks for drying it out? Or getting rid of the smell?? I keep leaving a fan heater in it for an hour or so, it must be working a bit, but not enough. I don't fancy taking all seven seats out to remove the carpet, and anyway can't really have it off the road for any length of time.

Buy or borrow a small dehumidifier, you will need to run an extension lead to the car for 24 hours.
I use them on boats all the time amazing how much water they shift.

Question is...is what caused the initial smell completely gone?
Sounds like its going to need anti bacterial treatment as well
