Hi guys, I'm new in here. I'm new in this forum and this looks nice and exciting. Lots to talk about and to many to share. This is good for car enthusiast especially those Honda freaks. anyway, this is my first post/question.

I'm having a problem with the air that circulates in our family car, it's a Honda CRV. I guess, it has some difficulties in releasing the air to the Honda exhaust that makes the air hot. Or maybe it has some problems on the air con, the Honda ac compressorneeds some cleaning or replacement I guess. I haven't brought it to the mechanic as of now, just asking for some suggestions first. I won't give some of my budget to some easy problems out here. Maybe you guys can help me with this.

It's not the exhaust air that warms up the car. It's the Radiator fluid. It travels from the block of the Engine, to the Heater core under your dash. I'm sure you are familiar with what a Radiator looks like. Well a heater core is pretty much the same thing, But much smaller. When you turn your car on, and let it run, Its cold because the fluid in your coolant system has not warmed up yet. A fan blows air to the desired vents you have manually chosen.

If you are haveing trouble with "not hot enough air" comming threw, the fan that blows air from your heater core is going out. I believe thats what you ment.

It sounds like the problem your having is that your radiator is overheating. The next time you drive sit in park for like five minutes and see what temp. your car gets up to. If it reaches above the red line then your radiator is over heating and that air is being blown into your car sending the "hot air" through your AC vents. This can be fixed by either patching up the radiator or replacing the entire radiator.

Just two days ago I noticed that when I turn my air fan off the air still flows out as if I have it set on medium high speed.

Now it only seems as though I have a medium high speed and a super high speed. My AC still works but air will continue to blow out of my vents even when I have the fan nob turned in the off position.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

yeah the blower motor (the fan that moves the air from the out side through the heater core) has a resistor. when that resistor goes on and off too many times it goes 'bad' you need a new one..... ....next.

Never keep the internal air circulating for more than 5 min. Actually the mode is to get faster cooling - it takes only about 5 min for the cabin to be completely cooled - after that you are supposed to shift into the external air mode.
