Check this out.. As it might be triggering
your sinus issues. Severe sinus pain can

muscle relaxers don't work for you. And
also why your family is showing some

That's a good point mrsD, everyone should know if their car has a cabin filter, and change it periodically if they do.
In 2010, I bought an older car for my high school aged son to learn on. When I got the car home and checked it over, I pulled out the cabin filter which still had the original factory date code from 1999 on it.
You can imagine the crud that was built up on that filter after 11 years and 120,000 miles
