Funny smell inside my X5

[Kmg3356]

I know this sounds crazy but the inside of my X5 started to smell like apples..and no there are no apples that rolled under my seat,
Could there be something wrong with the heating system ? It doesnt smell like antifreeze.

Thanks in advance ... Keith

It is probably windshield washer fluid. 90% sure it is, becuase I've smelt it before.

i did add windshield washer fluid the other day but it didnt say it was scented. it was orange instead of blue.. thanks for the help.

I use the orange stuff too (with rain-x?) and I believe it does kind of have an odd sweet fruity smell.
