Subject:Hot air from the dash vents?
From:MilosKitchen
Date:Sat, 11 Dec 2004 11:10:20 -0500

Archives aren't working for me today.

I own an '87 Syncro and a '91 Carat. I just discovered that the Carat's dash
vents will blow whatever temperature air the heater is set to, which is kind
of nice for cold hands actually; the Syncro just blows ambient (in this case
cold air), which is what I normally expect. Both vans blow cold through the
overhead side vents as normal.

The Carat of course has the cabin air exhaust in the rear side window vents
unlike the Syncro which have them in the doors, so I am guessing the dash
vents air handling may be a part of the revised system.

The Bentley seems mute on this point, unless I'm missing something, so...

Is this a "feature" or a problem? If it's a problem, it's one I'd like to
have on the Syncro!

Thanks,
Dave

In SW PA, where it's not that warm outside now.
