Phaeton :: AC Recirculation Does Not Work

So after driving my new phaeton for 3 months i realized that my AC re-circulation does not work. When i press the re-circle button , it shows up in the screen. but i don't hear the sounds of the fan any different from deactivating the re-circle. i can smell the bad air from outside even though re-circle is activated.

I believe that the re-circle should function like in other cars. more strong air flow and more colder. Just wondering if it's just the switch that needs to be changed or if there is a valve/door under the dash that I need to look into.

Camry :: Recirculation Button Override

My daughter just replaced her 2006 Camry with a 2007 Camry LE.

Her husband has an issue with smoke, car fumes, etc., so they need to keep the ventilation system in recirculation mode all of the time. They know they can hold the recirculation button in for 2-5 seconds to override the system but that is a pain each time they start the car.

Looking for a way to modify the car so it is always in recirculation mode.

Couple ideas we had were:

1) unplug a vacuum control module (would this throw a code)

2) add a timed relay on the recirculation circuit to automatically simulate holding the button for 5 seconds each time car is started (would need wiring schematic)

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2013 - A/C Recirculation Turns Off By Itself

I have an Elantra 2013, the issue that I face is that when I turn OFF the A/C, the recirculation turns off by itself which I don't want as it will allow dust to accumulate through the open vents when the Car is parked overnight.

So each time I turn off the a/c, I need to press the recirculation button as well so I can turn off the car with recirculation ON. Doesn't happen in other cars..

Passat (B7) :: 2014 - Blower Speed With Recirculation On Vs Off

Am I the only one who thinks the speed of the air coming out of the vents is faster at any given blower setting when recirculation is turned on rather than off? I also noticed that the blower sounds louder with recirculation on rather than off.

My car is a 2014 Passat TDI 6MT with the manual climate control, and has 3,000 miles on it. The cabin filter is basically brand new still and certainly isn't clogged up.

Mazda - Mazda3 :: Heater Only Works Using Recirculation

I've noticed this winter that my Mazda 3's heater is barely working using fresh air. It definitely gives out warmer air than the outside temperature, but not by a whole lot. If I turn on air recirculation, then the air becomes appropriately warm. What would cause the heater to work one way and not the other?

Passat (B5) :: 2003 - Air Recirculation Button Won't Work?

I bough this car (2003 Passat 1.8 turbo) recently and found that air is coming in on highway even air fan is off. I tried to turn on recirculation button, but it is not working (I can't even press it so it hold in ON position). I have read at some TDI forum that it might be air solenoid, but since my Passat is 1.8, location as I understand is different, But I can't find where it is.

May be I should check a fuse? if so where it is located?

Lexus ES 2013+ :: AC Odor In The Car - Cannot Locate Recirculation Vent?

I'm trying to fix bad AC odor in the car. Instruction says spray into recirculation vent as well as fresh air intake. Fresh air intake was easy but I can't locate recirculation vent. I put recirculate mode on and put the fan to max to feel where air gets moved but was unable to find the vent. Where it is located?

[URL] ....

Diagram there indicates there's one on passenger side and driver's side. I took the cabin filter out and inspected the blower motor housing. There really isn't any recirculate duct or vent. There is a big flap on top of the filter and blower motor housing that opens and closes according to the mode. So when the car is in recirculate mode, it just sucks the air behind glove box compartment.

Touareg :: Air Recirculation Valve Randomly Go Into Oscillations For A Couple Of Seconds

I'm experiencing an annoying problem with the air recirculation value on my Touareg. Basically it will randomly go into oscillations for a coupld of seconds, where is sounds like the vent blowers are either speeding up and slowing down quickly, or the recirculation valve is opening and closing rapidly.

This seems to happen randomly, and usually only lasts for a couple of seconds. I've taken it to the dealer twice but they aren't able to determine the cause of the problem.

Here is my theory for what it's worth. I think it may be the recirculation valve, whose job is to close the external air value from outside air to recirculating internal air when it senses pollutants in the outside air. I think the problem is caused by one of two scenerios;

1) the sensor is bad or failing and sends random signals to the vent controller causing it to open and close rapidly, or
2) The control circuit is not tuned correctly, thus instead of waiting to see if the pollutants it senses is sustained, it reacts instantaneously.

The noise this produces is quite annoying!

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: Climate Control Recirculation Door Will Not Stay On

2014 F150 FX4. The climate control recirculation door will not stay on. It will switch to fresh air by itself. When its cold outside if I set the climate temp to 75 deg. and system on auto with recirculation on, after a few min or so it will change to fresh air. At first I thought that maybe its normal for the auto system. So, I set it to manual mode, 75 deg. floor vents on med to low speed blower with recirculation on. And the same thing happens. There is no rime or reason to when it will switch.

Sometimes it seem to change more after stopping at a stop sign or after changing the seat heater temp, but I can't make it happen. It will happen most times in a 15 mile trip about three times. I took it to the dealer and they had the vehicle all day and said that it is normal. They said that Ford lets their recirc door do what ever they want depending on the temp. even in manual mode.

Phaeton :: Headlight Washer Not Working

I recently bought an 2005, 3ltr diesel Phaeton (though packed with options) in Germany. I drove it home and was, and am, in awe of the motoring experience.

As a fan of cars I am lucky to own a Opel Speedster (VX 220 in the UK) and a Buick Riviera Boattail from 1972. But the Phaeton beats all of them together!

But......my newly acquired Phaeton failed the technical control over here in Belgium due to the headlight washers (squishers?) not working (coming out of the bumper). Not even with the manual override through the control screen.

Dealer have checked every fuse, replaced on of the batteries which was not functioning properly (and was causing numerous 'power' errors). The car has been with them for two weeks now and I am getting desperate to drive my car.

Phaeton :: Headlight Washers Are Not Working

Wondering if my 2004 3.2 V6 FWD should have them and they are just off or not working or if they may not be fitted to my specific model. Can see no signs of them working when i use the windscreen wash/wipe. no water on the front of the car or wet patches on lights, etc.

Phaeton :: Reverse Lights Not Working

My reverse lights aren't working. I assume the trunk cable assembly is fine, as all my trunk opening and latching works and there is no viable damage to the cable. I figured the bulbs were burned out but I pulled the trunk liner today and at least one of the bulbs looks intact. I don't see any fuse listed for reverse lights.

Phaeton :: Mirror Stopped Working?

My friend has a Phaeton and his mirrors stopped working all of a sudden. His car is out of warranty. What it could be? It sounds like an electrical problem to me but you would have to check for power to the mirrors.
