[Philip Lee]

Mine used to do that when I first bought the car. It would do it once each time I drove, so I would switch it back to recirculate. But after the first 3-5 months, it stopped doing that. Wonder if I broke something.

no idea. my car is a EP3 btw.

but this issue also happens to many cars from other brands as well.

on mine as well... especially when you start the A/C and put it on low (not auto CC) then it smells like exhaust dump!!! I need to leave it on auto for a while (which gives me full on when I set 'Lo' eventhough is 10 degree outside).

Set your CC to recirculate and you won't get the exhaust smell. And Lo means super cold which will set it to max no matter what. I have tested at -1 ºC and Lo will still blow cold air at max fan!

My vti-l has never altered its state even if i turn on the windscreen demister, I know my grandfathers mazda 3 does

Although a driver could switch to recirculation mode manually, the driver may forget to switch back to outside air mode. By remaining in the recirculation mode, the windows could fog or the carbon dioxide level could increase resulting in a decrease in the oxygen level. Fogged windows and/or a decreased oxygen level in the cabin could compromise the safety of the driver and his or her passengers.

It's not an issue, many vehicles turns off recirculation mode after a while for safety reasons.
Tends to make you feel sleepy usually.

I was thinking that it would cost me about 200 for the cc.. and around 300 - 500 for installation.. so all up it would be only 500 - 700 bux.. I drove my cousins sportivo.. and used that cc.. and it just feels so much better than the old air conditioning..

[SaiHayashi]

true its like why do you need woman, when you can feel the same by hand

not exactly the feel but the outcome sure are the same,
anyway, climate control to me isnt a must have (altho i have em),
woman(women), however, is.

if aircon is on, the car shouldn't fog up.

i dunno what will kill me quicker, decreasing oxygen or inhaling exhaust fume....
