By the way, the 3-4 minutes is the time it takes for the engine coolant to warm up and bring hot coolant to the heater core.
WHen I said temperature is set to cold, I meant the temperature control lever is set to low. Even when its all the way towards the blue end, I still get HOT air coming in. The only thing that affects how hard it blows is how fast i am driving and how long i have been driving. usually like I said 3-4 mins is good enough to get HOT air coming out of the vents.

And yes the fan turns on. but I dont turn it on cuz I dont want it blowing even harder on my face.

I am thinking for some reason the air is sucked into the vents. Its not just that it feels hot there, i have air comimg thru the vents.- HOt air.

I thought maybe something is up with the heater/ac thing so I pulled the fuse for the heater/ac in my dashboard fuse box . NO change. Still get hot air blowing.

What I am puzzled is where is this air coming from? I can say the heat is coming from the engine. How about the air?

Thanks for yr replies
