    A/C issues

    Hey all. I bought my 2016 A4 Avant about a month ago. I live in northern MN (USA), so I haven’t needed to use the A/C till recently. When I turn it on, the two driver’s vents blow pretty cool (more so the one near the center), but all other vents blow warm to hot. VCDS is not showing any codes. Per recommendation, I replaced the A/C pressure switch. This seemed to make the cool air in the driver’s vents slightly cooler, but all other vents are blowing hot. Anyone experience similar issues?

    Sounds like a stuck blend door actuator

    Do you know of a way to verify this? Seems like an expensive thing to guess on.

    Command with vcds and confirm or just change temp. Unfortunately most answers on the internet will be guesses
