Have you changed the heater control valve, which is located in the plenum ? The solenoids in this part can stick that can affect the air temp in the cabin.

The fault code you ID (00739) doesn't show up in the Bentley Repair Manual. If it was a SAE DTC, it would have "P" prefix with four digits. If a VAG DTC, it would be a five digit number. What scanner, e.g. VCDS, are you using to detect the DTC?

That scanner would appear to be a generic OBD-II scanner, which may not correctly display the codes in SAE or VAG format. Without either the SAE P code of the VAG code, there is way to find the repair procedure in the A6 C6 Bentley Repair Manual.
