    Odd Fan Behavior

    Peeps, any idea why my heater fan increases in speed when I put the gearbox into reverse? Presumably someone's screwed up some wiring somewhere? Do these cars just have the one HVAC fan, or am I hearing a second one kicking in (that's what it kinda seems like)? Thanks for any help with this.

    It just switches into recirculation mode so exhaust gas doesn't get sucked into the car when you reverse towards it.
