Can anyone help my 850 T5 quit smoking?
Discussion
It's actually coming from the heater!
My 850 T5 has the climate control and when you turn either tep knob to anything other than the blue cold setting, a small puff of smoke and rather nasty smell comes out of the vents!
I've never had a car with A/C or Climate control before, but suspect that this isn't normal behavior. The temperature does go up when you select a setting other than cold, but the cold air setting isn't that chilly.
I'm guessing it's broken but if anyone can shed any light on the subject then I'd be very grateful!

Well i don't know where you're from(i'm from belgium)and here it costs about 200euros for the heater core and it takes the dealers about 2hrs to fix,part of the middle console has to come off.
Don't wait too long to fix it(the smell is a sweet sort of smell wich lasts for ages)
