So today I had some foam blowing out from some of the vents in my car. I think it started happening when I was defrosting my windshield. Any clue where the hell it's coming from and what I should do about it?
Your interior is lined all over the place with foam for sound deadening purposes.
Remove the vent/ bezel to look and see if you can find any clues to where it is coming from. The center bezel is easy to remove. A piece of foam may have come lose.
If you can't find culprit then I'd just let it go, unless You are up to taking apart the dash which is a PITA
Like stated above there is alot of foam.. also check the back of the bezel for the vents.. there is foam on there.. if it coming out of all vents i would check where the blower motor is...
your vent tubes are "sealed" to the vents themselves with foam to prevent air leakage...probably the flapper door near the blower motor has a toasted gasker. not sure if honda offers that as a standalone part...
yeah, i dont see the gasket as a separate part...it may be that oval area straight below #17 and #2
that would be my assessment, especially if the foam is gray/black. honda uses tan for wire protection inside the interior, for the most part (if memory serves correctly ). i'm positive most of the actual vent sealing foam is dark gray or black. of course, you could always make your own gaskets with door/window sealing tape from home depot.
What kind of insulation is it? I know that the vents themselves have a strip of black foam like insulation to seal the connection between the vents and the ducts.
Narrowed it down to the vents that are up against the windshield. I guess the defrost ones? Don't really remember what color the foam was, maybe dark brown/grey, but it definitely wasn't black. I'll try to snap a pic next piece that flys out
