recirc air quality

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys..

My recirc does not seem to stop outside air coming in.. in fact, sometimes its worse as all you can smell are diesel soot fumes when behind 4wd's and trucks.

is this normal? does anyone else have this issue?

My friend Chris at Inline steering said that there was a law against totally sealed recirc systems these days, but my wifes Eos has no such issues with fumes into the cabin when on recirc.

This is really frustrating.. your input appreciated..

i also note when i press the recirc button, the light comes on but i cant hear any actuators moving things around. wonder if i have an issue??

cheers

Hi mate, I'd like you help you out a bit and give you some info on proper operation of the recirculation control in the Aurion from personal experience.

Firstly, just double checking you know that when the green light is ON that's should recirculate air inside the car, with the green light OFF that's on fresh mode, air from outside.

Secondly, unsure about law about it being completely sealed (never heard that before) but I can say that when I turn my recirc on because a smelly diesel vehicle is in front of me it completely cuts the smell. Nothing enters the car. So it should be the same with you.

On some cars you can hear the mechanics moving around when you hit recirc but I have never noticed that sound with the Aurion at all.

In fact, (I think most other Aurion owners will know this) that after you turn recirc on (or off, I'm not 100% sure). Stay in the car and have all windows up, and listen very carefully, you can actually hear the recirc (which I'm sure it is) moving. I think that when you turn the car off the recirc either opens up or closes automatically. You can always hear it several seconds after you turn the car off.
