HVAC Question?
I was hoping to get your thoughts on this. Almost all the vehicals I have owned in the past have had a "passive ventilation system" as I call it. I mean I could set the mode to front vent , feet or windshield, select a temp and turn off the system. The air would slowly vent through the desired mode at the set temp without using the actual vent fan to move air. I liked it because I didn't have to constanly adjust the temp. I have noticed that on my F250 When the HVAC fan is off, no air moves through any vents. Which is probobly normal. Just miss the "passive ventilation" is what I'm saying.

the last 4 newer vehicles I've owned (2011 SD, 2007 Tundra, 2002 Acura, 2005 Explorer) had digital thermostats like the 2011 SD. All of them completely shut off airflow when you told them to. My 1996 cobra does allow some airflow when "off", although I'm not sure if it's intentional or just a bad seal somewhere.
