Well today I was driving on the freeway with my air conditioner on set on the lowest setting #1. I had it on for maybe 20 minutes and I notice some white smoke coming out from the middle vents. So I just turned off the air conditioner and waited a few minutes and turned it back on, no smoke came out this time. Just wondering what this is, is something leaking or broken??

mine did the same thing today, i think its caused by the rapid temp change between the cold and warm air.

If the ac system were to have a leak the only way you would get smoke out of the vents would be if your evaporator exploded. AC systems usually leak out very slowly and since it is a gas you won't see it. When an AC system is under high pressure and something blows the gas coming out would look like a mist and stink. Also if there were a leak that bad your ac would not be cold at all.

Its Zyklon B!!!


no its normal. My integra does it too. Probebly because of a poorly manufactured condenser.
