Default Heater blows out leafs and stuff

Some times when i turn my vents on high they blow out leafs, Pine needles and other crap.

Iv had the car for about 2 months , And it still does it .. bought from a dealership.


I think it usually only with heat

Removal of three screws will drop down the blower motor from behind the glove box. Then unplug the connector and clean out the blower.

Open the hood and look at the area forward of the windshield wipers. Do you see a grill where air can enter? That's where air enters the cabin when the heater control panel is not set on recirc. That's where leaves and debris eventually get into your blower.

If your blower is spitting out leaves and stuff, it is a good possibity that the ac coil is anywhere from 30 to 50% blocked by more trash. That is next in line to catch the air off the blower. I have pulled several coils lately from clean , well kept cars , and they ALL had a right smart blockage. I tried to reach thru a removed blower to gain access to clean the coil , but was unsuccessful. Appears the only way to clean the coil good is to remove it.......and that means to remove the 134 charge.
