Strangest Thing out of my air vents!!

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] The other day I was driving on the highway I had my AC on for about an hour, and then I turned it off. I keep cruisin for about ten to fifteen minutes and It is unbearably hot. Its about eighty or ninety degrees out. I turn the AC back on and a fog comes out of the vents. Any I deas??? I think maybe the vent got too hot and then to cold, and pressed out fog??? I really don't know...

Thanks, I usually don't have a butt load of time to spend on my CPU. All study, and plenty of play, doesn't leave much time for the computer.[IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

I've never seen that thread myself, but then again I used to think it was common sense.

just put it this way, at least you don't have cockroaches or spiders coming out of your vents. I thought this thread was going to be one of those again. I remember someone posting a thread like that with cockroaches.

The same thing happens to me also. It happened to me with my old car at times too, but not as often as with the Civic. Call me weird but I think it's kinda neat to watch for the 30 seconds or so it happens.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

I agree, everytime it happens I sit there and watch all this smoke/fog coming out of the vents. It's pretty cool, I even play with it and put my hand there to see what happens HAHAHA[IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

If anyone needs help on a question on A/C just ask me or PM me, I'm ASE certified in A/C. I live in the Tampa FL area and I've been dealing with automobile A/C for 15 years. I was once a full car mechanic some years ago but got out of the trade. I still keep my A/C knowledge up to date as a "side" business because it gets awfull HOT here in the summer.

Humm odd that has never happened in my ride yet but I never really use the A/C just once a week or so to keep it in good order. Can't remember seeing a thread on that but who knows
