when a/c is on. ..
Does any one experience that when you turn on the A/C, air still comes in even though you have the recirculate button on.. I recently notice that if a diesel truck in front of me, the exhaust smell come rushing in if I drive behind or seat next to them at a red light. My is a 03 TL-s with 3,3xx miles only.. Could it be a defect? Any suggestion or advise would be appreciate..Keep in mind windows are all closed.

Yield, even though it is recycled air there still has to be fresh air coming through otherwise you'd die from your own carbon dioxide. Unfortunately the crap that comes out of buses and trucks are thick and get right into the air. Imagine what it would smell like if it wasn't recycles and it was all fresh air.

Not to mention the density that diesel smoke puts out. There is no way to avoid it. You'll appreciate the slight smell if you decide to open your windows instead :wow:

if no "fresh" air came in you'd die.

I don't mean to drive behind them.. they are the one who either passes me up on the highway or seating next to me at the red light... Sorry I meant the power stroke diesel p/u like the ford or dodge..
