Pull your battery cover off and look down the firewall, see if something (mouse) is dead on top of your cabin air filter.

Dude!!! so I looked through the battery cover and into the cabin filter and there is a freeking nest! I can only see the top half of the nest because Im at work and I cant get the battery out and full cover off.
I hope they were not able to eat through the filter???
Thank you sooo much!
