I bought a brand new Toyota Corolla in 2003 and now it started "smoking." When I turn on the AC smoke comes out for a moment, and then when I turn it off and on again everything seems to be normal. A few months ago when that happened my AC did not blow cold air at all, and so I took my car to the dealership and they said that there was something in the filter and changed it. Everything was fine for a few weeks, and now the smoke (or dirty air) is here again, but my AC still blows cold air.
Please help me!!!

It's not smoke, its condensation. Your ac pump might be going out or one of your drainage lines may be clogged. It's 100% AC problem, not an engine problem. I've had the same thing happen to my Volkswaggen Jetta.

Wow some of the answers posted!
Hard to say for 100% if it's blowing cold the freon charge is fine if the air filter was replaced doubt it's dust and I doubt it's condensation either. I would wonder if the blower motor or something else is the source of the smoke.
Be sure what your seeing it's possible it could be dust if something was burning in their the smell is real distinct you would smell it and wonder what the BLANK is that!

Are you seeing smoke inside the cabin, or is under hood? If it is in the cabin it is just condensation, if it is under hood it sounds like your A/C compressor clutch is slipping and if this is the case your A/C won't blow cold for long.
You might want to visit your Toyota Dealer again.

That's a service repair problem more then anything.
I would go back to the dealership.
If it's blowing smoke, the problem is not fixed. Dont' give up after one try. Take it back and tell them they didnt' fix the problem.
I have never heard of that before.
My last *two* Toyota's have been awesome, solid cars.
Good Luck!

in support, besides, a 1991 vs a 2000 engine are light years apart in design and management. your ecu, harnesses, and transaxle, will not accept such an engine.
