    Good day classmates! I hope you can help me. I decided that joining this forum will be of help in diagnosing problems of my car.

    lately, I noticed that when I am travelling along the highway, air is flowing and coming out from the A/C vent even when the fan and compressor is turned off. What could be the cause? And when I switch on the A/C, i smell something like dust particles from the road coming out of the aircon vent. Is there something wrong with the A/C or something? The A/C is still cool as far as I can feel it. Thank you very much. I hope you can help me and I would greatly appreciate if you could.

    maybe your vent motors are malfunctioning resulting in open vents even when the recirculate button is on, which should close the vents.

    bukas po yung external ventilation mo. its either sira na yung mga rubber sealings nya, o hindi maganda ang pagkakakabit.

    Happy_gilmore, Bluebimmer, thanks for your initial replies. Mahal po ba magpagawa ng ganon? San po ba makikita yung rubber sealings or vent motors? Salamat po.

    baka naka open yung vents mo.. dapat naka recirculate.
    >also agree ako kay Happy, baka sira yung mga rubber/foam seals..

    vents and seals are on the fan assembly.. kailangan pang baklasin

    pag nakasara recirculate ka naman, tapos ganun pa rin. pwede mo na lang isabay sa AC cleaning to have that fixed or Seal the vents temporarily with tape..

    salamat po. At least I know for now that it is not a major repair. ipupunta ko na lang po sa isang A/C shop mamaya.

    kung medyo matyaga ka, pwede i-DIY yan. kaya lang ang sakit sa likod nyan dahil sa mga sedans, nasa ilalim ng glovebox ang vent.
