Acegard you're a STAR Replaced the hedgehog and it's working a treat again now. The thread you hooked me up with was right - getting the glovebox off is the worst part, but it is all straight forward from then. Now the resistor is changed the aircon smells a wee bit, but I reckon it just needs a good blow through as it's not been used for a while. Thank again Andy

Unlucky KevC, This seems to be a curse with this vehicle, the first time being the worst. If you can remove the wiper mechanism/rods and get the spindles free'd off,either with heat or lube, this problem will just take a little bit of nursing periodically in the future. Good luck!

G'day folks, Wondering if you'd be able to help this new kid on the block out. I have a 2000 Mk2, 1.9TDi which has ceased to provide vented air from the blowers on settings 1 and 2. For air we have to crank it up to 3 or 4, the air con air doesn't work in the front section of the car too - but is ok when selected in the back. On advice from a mate I replaced the blower control unit, with no change to the symptoms! Is this a common issue? Does it sound like an expensive fix? Could I fix it myself, if so where would I locate the faulty bit/s? Many thanks in advance for any advice. Andy
