Do u get smoke from vents? sounds like AC evaporator problem. Trans oil is a separate issue. May just need servicing. Have the cooling system pressure checked. Good luck
Pull your sparkplugs out and check for plugs soaked with oil.If you find any wet with oil then you have worn valve seals or valve guides my guess would be valve seals.
I'd first check for wiring/fuses - make sure all electrics work. If I'm not mistaken, car has a cabin filter that might need changing. I don't think vent/leave is the issue.
Is it smoke? Or is it steam? If it's really smoke, it will smell like burning wires and you have an electrical short somewhere. You're going to have a fire unless it's fixed.
My guess is that it's probably not smoke or you would have already had a fire.
With that said I'm going to say that it's steam in which case your heater core (which is a small radiator located under the dash) is leaking coolant and the resulting steam is rising through the vents. The steam will have a sort of sweet and yes, a steamy smell to it. It will also leave a funny film from the radiator coolant coating the inside of the windshield.
The heater core should be replaced if my assumptions are correct.
What you have is humidity.When the air is on,most of this is condensed in the vents.Thats why you see the water dripping on the ground when the car is parked and the air running.If it all doesn,t go out the drip tube it can come through the vent system.Turn the air system onto recirculate for a few minutes and it should fix the problem.It is totally harmless and shows your aircon is working pretty well.Hope this helps
