A volatile organic compound purge system is provided for a motor vehicle. The purge system includes a blower and a computing device. The computing device is configured to operate in a shipping mode whereby the blower is periodically operated to draw fresh air into and purge volatile organic compounds from an interior of the motor vehicle as the motor vehicle is being shipped from a first point to a second point.

A vehicle cooling system may include a variable displacement compressor, and a controller configured to, in response to a determination that the compressor is operating within a gurgling zone that is defined by a predefined range of compressor speeds and currents, generate a current signal defining a displacement for the compressor based on a speed of the compressor and an ambient temperature to control the displacement to reduce refrigerant flow noise.
