The trusty search button!

Apparently the "vacuum actuator part no. 210904451 that sits up near the heater box" (Trent L). whole issue is discussed in the thread below.

Addendum ...

If that is your issue - there are two actuators.

Do yourself a big favour & replace both. For the extra $65 it's worth it not to have to rip the dash out for a second time ..... we live & learn.

Definitely a vacuum leak. Had the exact same issue on my VZ, as has several other folk on this forum. Although mine is not climate control, the vacuum schematics are virtually identical, apart from the vacuum solenoid pack.

My vacuum leak was caused by both a leaking foot vacuum actuator, and a leaking vacuum mode switch. A new foot vacuum actuator cost around $65 (now that Holden has finally sourced a supply of new ones), but the vacuum mode switch cost around $130, as they only come as the complete controller & fascia.

Fixed mine by simply reversing the vacuum tubing on bottom solenoid Pink/Orange (Pink to side, Orange to end) No dollars spent.
