Hello, I'm having a problem. My A4 isn't warming up properly, even though the temperature gauge shows 90 degrees.
I have the impression that the airflow is not sufficient.
Because when I set the air conditioner to automatic mode, I can barely feel any airflow, but when I switch it to recirculation mode, I feel like I'm being blown away.
I know that certain parameters, such as speed and rotation, can be read from the climate control system. Is there also a way to influence the control parameters of the climate control system?
Or perhaps perform a reset?

Best regards, Frank icon_lol.gif

Hello,

Perhaps the pollen filter is clogged, which is preventing enough fresh air from entering! The fact that there is airflow when the recirculation mode is activated also supports this.
I would like to replace that part; it's located at the front, in the water collection box, underneath the windshield.

Best regards, Albrecht.
