PJFW8 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) When the climate control on my '11 Edge is on the pressure in the cabin builds quickly. It is irritating and sometimes hurts my ears and causes a minor drum like rumble. Cracking a window stops the problem but is noisy. Does the cabin vent? Where? Would it be feasible to open or make a vent? My '08 Edge did not have this problem. Edited June 30, 2011 by PJFW8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choff1138 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 I notice this when my daughter opens her back window and a second window isn't opened, but haven't noticed it when all windows are closed. It is amazing how painful it can get though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP: Most vents for cars are located in the trunk area. If they are closed, or blocked, pressure can build. I crack the BAMR if I get uncomfortable (not often). Look at the vents in the trunk compartment and see if you can make them flow better. Usually, they have a flap to block things from entering the cabin (spiders come to mind).

railroad Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Do not know if your vehicle has a vent filter, but it might soften the inbound pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
