thats a good "how to" but is the thermostat in the same place on a 2.0???

Im not sure a 2.0 owner will be along to help soon

oh and also would that explain why no air is coming out of my heater full stop???

When did you last change your pollen filter?

could be either the motor, resistor pack or switch that is causing the fan to stop working...

A dirty pollen filter will restrict air flow

From what i understand it works but not very well IE: not much air flow?

As for the lack of heat as said thermostat
