Heater flaps are all servo motors controlled off the heater panel. If it's chattering you may need a new motor. They cost lots.

If that's all it is I'd live with it!

its not really bad, unlesss you hit a really bumpy bit, and then it chatters a bit

if it is servo controlled, there may be room for adjustment then, i dont think new motor is needed as it works perfect from hot to cold etc

Check that both controls for the blower exhausts work properly (on & off)

It could be a loose control vane.

10 min job!

Remove the central fan housing & re attach the control arm.

The clips are visible from inside the vents, 8 of them, prise them into the fan & pin them open with a nail or cocktail stick.

Gently pull the housing out (there is a clip at the top right!) and reattach anything that needs it.

Pop it back in & remove the nails to secure!

Cheers Badger,

sounds about right, so i get it as

i am unclipping the front vents from 8 cilps,,then does the front vent pull off, and i can see the control flap ( vane ) ??

Yeah, look just inside the vent...

There will be 2 plasic slot U shapes.

2 at the top as well...

Pry them up the way, they should be a real pain, but 2 thin nails/cocktail sticks will do it!

Pin them open once they are up/out & do them all.

Then gently work the whole vent/hazwarn console out.

Top right has a clip next to the hole left for the 3 C contol port.

The vent control flap is held by a really flimsy plastic arm...

You may have to reattach one, or both (they tend to pop out when you remove the vents).

Fitting is a reversal of removal (haynes! :lol: )!
