Octavia 1Z Auxiliary Heater Removal

Hello community,

I wanted to remove my auxiliary heater today, but I'm stuck because I can't get the last screw off.
A rod from the heating system is located directly in front of it.
I've already pressed all the buttons on the automatic climate control system, but this actuator isn't moving.
Can someone tell me how to loosen the last screw, or how to reposition the actuator motor? That would be enough for me.

Sure, Billi.

Is it not possible to detach the actuator rod or remove the servo motor?

Okay, here's the translation:

"I will figure it out myself."
It's best to adjust the temperature of the heater on the driver's side before disconnecting the auxiliary heater. This will cause the actuator motor to rotate, making the screw accessible. Then, you can easily pull the part out.

A service position with VCDS would likely also be beneficial.
