My a/c smells like gas fumes when I turn it on, but the smell goes away when I turn on air recirculation. What do? It's a 2000 Jetta

Your car is gonna blow up lmao

How do i not make this happen sir
>>
Just drive without a/c on you'll be fine
>>
You have an exhaust leak under your hood, probably headers
>>
>>17756664
Alright and how bad is that, cost-wise?
>>
You have a leak in the ac system and it's sucking in emission/engine smells and blowing it into the cabin when you turn it on. Recirculated air is from the cabin only so that's why you don't smells it. Find the leak it will be in a flex hose or the hard line.

Ehhhh.... $200? Assuming you just cracked a header and need to buy a new one and have it installed.

His AC just sucks in air from the intakes that are probably just in front of his windshield wipers under the hood. There shouldn't be "engine smells" in that air if his exhaust is working correctly, beyond maybe a faint aroma of lubricant and belts.

My had had the same thing in his 2000 2.0L jetta. Its either the seal between the exhaust manifold and the engine or a crack in the manifold itself. Have the exhaust looked at before the first catalytic converter.
>>
Change the cabin filter, you should be good after that

You also need a new wiring harness.
