One method that often worked would be to park car in driveway with engine running, open all windows and turn the heater to max heat and max fan. Make sure AC is OFF.
This seemed to dry out and kill the offending mold

Turn on the blower to max, turn off the air-con button, set the two temp dials to max temp, go into the i-drive, climate, air distribution, where there is a scale for cooling effect, adjust from blue to full amber. You will feel plenty of warm air from all the vents.

My ac smelled awful for the last month or so to the point that i called the dealer and put a request in for my service visit next week. In the mean time while i was cleaning my load i looked under the hodd and found the microfilter compartment, I removed both of them and they were full of pollen and dust i politly vaccumed them off and lightly sprayed a disenfectant on them placed them back and low and behold i used the ac twice in the last couple of days and no smell at all. So i quess the filters have something to do with it also. Damn these things were filty tho.
