    I have a 2010 4Runner Limited and in the last few days I've seen a light mist coming from the center AC vent for a few seconds. This occurs when the air re-circulation is off. If I turn the air recirculation on, the mist stops. There is no odor, it is NOT smoke. Any ideas what might be causing this?

    That is unconditioned air from the outside hitting conditioned air on the inside, the air is hitting the dew point and then dissipating.
