Hi Folks,
My VS Berlina w/ climate control has developed a strange quirk in that under load (when travelling up hills, or when giving it a bit) the air direction will change from the face to the feet, and back again when the revs and load drops off.
I am aware the system runs off vacuum from the engine, and there are servos that control the direction of the air behind the dash, but wouldn't have a clue how to test them (what resistance should they have for example?) or where to begin troubleshooting.
Does anyone have any experience in this area? I have been quoted about $400~$500 for a new climate control unit, $40 for the servo, plus labour, and I would rather not pay those somewhat steep prices when I can test and hopefully repair myself.
Any help appreciated,
Cheers.
