Yes when i got the car serviced at the stealers they gave the recipt and it said microfilters changed. But i dont think they did. They also said wipers changed and they where still the old wipers. With my jag they always say microfilters changed but i got into the filters the otherday and they where in very bad shape.

WM,
They probably gypped you on the microfilter change, and/or the change stirred up some mold and crud floating in the system. I also recall there are two microfilter part #s, and one is much better than the other...dunno. It's a pia, but I try to turn off A/C, go to norm vent, crank up the fan speed a little, and let the outside air run through my HVAC system for the last couple miles, heading home...it seems to blow the last remnants of the a/c air out, and I have never had that "old a/c stale air" smell. Not handy, but maybe a thing to do when heading for the barn to park it overnight. GL,mD
