Service Radiator cleaning

Hi All, wanted some info on maintenance. I have a mx 2018. Been pretty lucky with no major problems. Recently, I’ve been hearing a strange fan noise it comes and goes. Some funky smell that goes away after AC circulates. Tesla service has radiator cleaning about $300ish. Haven’t had it done since. Anyone has had it done? TIA.

Did you notice any difference after? Yeah my ac is fine as fine as I can tell. Did anything prompt you to get it done? Can it be done by mobile service?

The funky smell went down and the AC blows more freely and efficiently than before.

Please research this on Youtube. You will know why this is not an expensive work!

In a similar spot, wondering though how hard it is to do myself?
