i work for a quick lube shop in south louisiana. we have many regulars who drive jettas and passats. a few months ago, i had a new customer come in, whose jetta smelled like a box of crayons. she mentioned this to us, and said she knew some friends whose vw's also had a crayon smell, and generally went on to state that it's just the way vw's are (yeah right). on the 29th of july, i had another new customer in an '01 jetta vr6 come in with the same mysterious odor. she asked if i would change out her air filter because the crayon smell was so overwhelming, it was making her nauseous, even though she had the whole interior steam cleaned from top to bottom, including the headliner. i checked her air filter and assured her that was not the cause. i suggested maybe the cabin air filter needed to be replaced, or maybe there was something in the duct work. if anybody has any ideas on what causes this, i'd like to know so i can give my customers some suggestions on how to possibly rectify the problem.
