Default Heater Unit

Hey guys...

So its starting to get a bit cold here in Upstate NY and Ive started giving her a few extra minutes to warm up in the morning and have been turning the heat up so its nice and warm by the time i get in there...

Well I noticed that my center vent up front is not blowing hot air... its cool... not COLD yet, but DEf cool. The other vents to the sides and even the one on each side of the center one are blowing warm air....

Whats going on here?? Anything I can look into and remedy this problem?!?!

That vent has it's own separate temp control...a few degrees this way or that, depending on how you have the dial set. If it doesn't respond to that, you need to VagCom it to determine whether it's the temp sensor for that vent or the motor/flap that regulates it.
