Great video that I sadly only found now, after repairing my car.

Dude, exactly the information I was looking for!! Thank you

Just bought a used A3 the other day and realized this is a problem. Thanks for the video, super helpful!

Thanks. Currenty have temp problems on my MK7 golf on the drivers side. What you pointed out for the temperature control is probably what I will need to replace. Looks like that is in a better spot for removal. (Research continues)

Thanks you for the information, best explanation video out there! Had to also do it for mk7 Golf, because the aircon was not blowing air to the footwell. Part number was 5Q0907511A but was also advised to use 2Q0907511G and OEM part because cheaper parts can be risky. Did not need to remove the instrument cluster, but the two screws took a nice hour to get out. The lower one can be done with a smaller hex screwdriver and the top one I did with a regular screwdriver with hex head, just have to figure out the right space to put it through.

Good video thank you! 🙏

What controls the middle vents? The only vent that blows is the driver side vent by the door and on the passenger side one as well.

Thanks for the video. So i have codes B109071 defroster flap, B108B13 & B108B71 fresh air recirculation flap motor. These if i understand you correctly are right side behind glovebox. top one center area and one far to the right on the flap door above fresh air filter? is this correct? same car. Looks like part # 5Q0907511d is now 5WA907511B. I get air all the time out the defrost front window and can get air out the vents but still defrost vents if i only have vent button on. never get air out foot area no matter what switches are on. I can turn vent air flow off but always getting air out defrost no matter what.

Great video, thanks for posting this in such detail! 🙏🏼

Hey ive got a right hand drive vw passat. Will the defroster flap motor still be on the right hand side, in my case the drivers side? Cheers

I moved the flap (without motor) to see if it was stuck... By looking at the new motor incould see that it isnt symmetrical, so would that mean that you cant put the motor badly on the gear of the flap?

Can you please tell me how to align the gears of the motor and the flap? Did you do it by hand?

Do you happen to have the part numbers for all 5 motors?

Seems like this is an up and coming problem, read a few recent comments and have a problem myself (defrost actuator) in my 2015 A3 : |

What tools did you use to get in that tight space?

They make cars so shit nowadays! You’d think Audi are well made because of their price but fuck me, they make everything cheap
