Morning all.
So I've been going through some problems with my heating recently. I have a 2014 Leon FR ST 2.0 tdi with dual climate control.
It started off a month or two ago as the summer faded away, I noticed my car was blowing air but it wasn't even warm. It turns out my heater matrix was blocked, to a point where I couldn't even blow through it. So I've picked the car up last week from the garage that replaced it, and it works! .... kind of.
So now, the passenger side is lovely and hot, but the driver side (feet and face blowers) are only very slightly warm. Now, when I turn on the face blowers, i can hear a click and a slight creek from the back of the dash, sounding immediately like one of the blower vents is sticking or being blocked by something.
My question is, is the vent part located directly behind the matrix? Could the mechanic have knocked one of the vent motors out of place or moved something in the way to block it? Is it something I can easily check and release so it moves freely?
Photos or drawings, or even some type of tutorial would be an absolute life saver, I froze my ass off on the way to work this morning! Was almost tempted to hit cruise control and climb over to the passenger side!
