Title: Mk4 heater problems!
Post by: amaru on 20 July 2012, 14:55

Hello all! I'm in a bit of a pickle with my heater blower on my mk4. It works, but only on number 4, so I'm either really hot or really cold! Also, the third dial (positioning one) is very stiff, and very difficult to change. Do these problems mean I have to change the unit all together, and if so how do I go about it? It seems a lot more complicated than my old mk3!
Many thanks
Amar

This happened in my mk5 golf I changed the heater resistor under the pollen filter and it solved the issue.

I dont know if its the same on mk4 platform sorry.
