Therefore it sounds like your smell was being caused by one of the other few things you changed not on the fact that you added a filter.

True I did fix the smell by changing several variables, but the filter was the root problem. No filter let debris in, debris clogged drain, excess stagnant water got smelly and was splashing around in car. There may be other ac smells, but it mine was caused by the filter. The smells are not taken away by the filter, clogs are prevented by the filter.

Awwww I see now. Guess you must live in an extra dusty/debris area. Don't think Toyota would consider making the cabin air filter standard based on a few area's conidition.
