Update: Air comming out of boot is loads - and nice and hot Air comming from head lining is poor and cold Air comming from behind front chairs is poor and cold Air comming from dash is poor and warm When cold the aux heater fires up, and the exhaust is very hot to touch. Car still smells of fumes, today its stinking of fumes but the Aux heater isnt even on.

Thanks for your help, are you able to tag the aux gurus into this topic?

Using the latest VCDS with a proper lead, not an ebay lead. Aux heater has stopped firing up, wierd! Pipes in and out of heater are luke warm, so im assuming thats the warmth comming from the front heater matrix. If the aux unit isnt working then the flaps / motor wont be working either. I took the wiring plug appart earlier, was all manky, sprayed with contact cleaner, reset errors and still the same. What temperature does the aux heater start working at?

BLower can be heared and it increases in speed with the fan control on Dash Ill check the hoses when its not raining cats and dogs, any other checks I can do in this weather? I also have this vagcom error - Address 18: Aux. Heat Labels: 7M3-815-071.clb Part No: 7M3 815 071 C Component: HEIZG.

Water is trickling into expansion tank so not the water pump. Front heaters work but not back heaters, and air flow is quite poor out of back heaters. Aux fires up and gets very hot, so thats working. Missing water was from 12 months, not a huge issue loosing a small amount. she just never tops her car up

Nope, new pump installed. Seems i wasnt testing the pump in the water correctly. Have better hot air in front and no hot air in back. Is that the aux motor?

Update 2: put every thing back together, when i turn ignition on I hear a whiring noise. No water trickles into the expansion tank. Have ordered a replacement motor.

Update, just checked the run on pump, took it out and placed it in a bucket with 12v accross it. Nothing pumped........... Stripped the top off, impellor seems fine. Plastic, put 12v across it with just impeller and it spins. However not very fast. Am I to assume Run on pump broken?

OK, the wife is complaining her car is cold. I have done the following; Checked fuses - all ok Checked aux heater - hot as foook! Checked water level - Was below the min level so topped up When I set the temp to LOW and Motors to Max theres loads of air comming through the vents. Front and rear. When I set the temp to 18, the amount of air that comes through the vents is approx half. When I set temp to high, the amount of air is still crap and its not very warm at all. Car also takes ages to warm up, perhaps linked?
