smoke out the air vents????? that sounds like more than faulty aircon

usually with aircon the gas leaks out the system and it no longer chills the air, thats it.

just spoke to him and he said it only does it if the air cons on so googled it maybe a condesor or something :scratch:

I thought the condensor was the actual rad that sits in front of the main radiator?

Not a burning smell then?
