Noticed the AC was making a mildew/moldy smell when first turned on. Only happened with AC but not vent w/o AC. Dealer determined it was the cabin air filter (it was black) and also noted the engine air filter was black. Both were replaced, and dealer used an "AC scent kit" to clean out residuals in the system.
Also mentioned a periodic shimmy in the motor when idling maybe every 10 seconds, very minor but asked for it to be checked. No issues were found related to this, no repairs performed to resolve this (truck still has periodic shimmy).
