I have never smelled this before, nothing is on (ac or heat) and it still smells?????
What do I do? If I stick my nose up to the vent I can smell inside and its is nasty, Im freaking out !!!! (sorry)

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!
