Moldy smell

[surfndude44]

I bought a 2004 mini about 6 weeks ago and am extremely happy with it. One thing when I turn on the A/C I get a moldy smell for the first 3 minutes and then it subsides. I just ordered a charcoal cabin filter which I will replace. Anything else I should check / look for asto the cause?

Thanks, Tom
