What did it smell like?

didn't really smell. it's more like vapor smoke. i didn't notice this until once in august and then yesterday. also never happened to my knowledge before i had the last recall done at Lexus last year. i haven't noticed any coolant leakage inside the car or oil leakage outside. i'll do an inspection later today as i'm going to remove the front lip i have on the car.

You may want to check and see if the condensation drain is plugged for your A/C.
If you let it go long enough your floor mats and floor will get soaked.
I saw a similar issue with my car along with a musty smell. A while later I noticed the floor in my car was soaked.
When I popped the condensation drain out, a lot of water pored out.

That's not smoke....its vapor and happens when the air blowing across the evaporator coil has high humidity and there is a big temperature drop in the air after being cooled....nothing to worry about...unless it has a coolant smell

Here is the thread where they talk about where it is.
It is a real pain in the butt. I was able to get at it without disconnecting everything, but it cost me some skin and some sore muscles due to the awkward positions I had to get into to find it.

It looks like you may have figured it out, but this is still a good one to keep in mind.
