Firstly, have you tried it on every directional setting? The Windscreen setting ignores the temperature setting because it assumes you need to clear the windscreen of condensation, which confuses drivers and leads them to think they’ve got a defective heater..

Yes mate tried all combinations,temp goes up to about 90 on dash but it’s still only warming

Yeah, i can confirm that this has caught me out until I eventually figured out that it's significantly warmer than what ever the temp setting is adjusted to!

Does the AC need re-gassing?

think so mate its not the coldest ac I've had, convinced myself controls faulty

I think a recharge is around 80 quid from a VW dealer and around 60ish from an independent. If it does need a recharge the AC is likely to have a leak so worth investigating.

Any decent garage when re gassing will take out all existing gas and oil, run a vacuum test to check for leaks then re gas and oil so you should find out at this point if there is a leak.

My car does not have this issue as it has Climatronic, but there is a thread on the Dutch Forum about this. It is said there that VW are working on this as it is a general issue on non-climatronic T6’s.

Heater blowing only hot or warm... A bit cooler after air con, but then goes back to warm again. Is anubody had this?

Often the problems reported are relative to no air being delivered on settings 1-3 but only on 4.

Does your issue sound like this:

RESOLVED: Heater Problem - Very Hot Air Only

Hi Frustrating problem with a T5.1 Heater, Blower works fine on All speeds however Hot cold dial delivers very hot air when turned dull anti clockwise but cold on every other position even if turned back just a smidge Any ideas ? TIA

Does it do this whatever position you put the air direction dial in ?

Pete

 

[Valgas ltd]

Yes. In all positions the same.

So it sounds like one of the motors behind the dash, controlled by the dial, has stopped working.
Can’t really help you any more as this is not a common problem.
I guess an error code might have been generated which you could read with Carista or similar.
