First prob in a year ? heater staying on hot ..dial it down to 19 degrees Still hot ..any ideas ?..having to switch on ...when car to hot turn it off ?..does anything come to mind folks ??
Fine if you have a spare climate unit but easy enough to take current climate out, remove cover, unscrew liittle fan and clean blades. You would never believe how clogged up with fluff they become. Also an oppurtunity to give the associated small vent on the fascia a good clean, looks so much better.Not sure if this may help you also, but worth a try if you have a spare unit handy?

I bought a brand new spare compressor years ago tucked away in the garage somewhere ( it was cheap on e bay ) ?In Jun-2014 I had an issue with the climate control running too hot. Fault code:
01271 Positioning motor for temperature flap (V68) 41-10 Blocked or No Voltage - Intermittent.
I’m not saying yours and mine were the same issue.
Mine needed:
. air con compressor
. V68 control flap motor
. re-gas
In total cost me roughly £550 (inc VAT).
We suspect the air con compressor may have been collateral damage from a front-end impact. The list price at Audi for that part alone was £650; thankfully Rob Womersley had a used one for a fraction of that.
