Now i dont know whats wrong coz the vcds didnt help me.
Just be glad she didn't decide to close the MMI display "manually". I won't let anyone detail my interior because of this reason alone.

Do NOT attempt to recode the driver's seat with the code from the passenger’s seat, or the other way around. You will end up with the same address on both seats (36 for driver or 06 for passenger); the modules will be conflicting, and will both respond to the same commands (e.g. when you want to move one seat backwards, they will both move). Plus, you will lose the ability to diagnose and recode the other seat.

Moreover, the 'ventilated' seats option is not coded in the seat's module, but in the HVAC module (address 08).

All seats heating and ventilation functions dependent purely on the temperature sensor in every seat, it's a safety feature. Check wiring cable and the sensor.

Well i took the seat out and found that someone broke the ventilator with feet or something. i managed to repair it coz audi ask for a new one 170 plus euros. I dont find it worth paying for a small ventilator that much. now it is working for now

That is what they are.

Replace it with one of these, an R/C aircraft ducted fan to make yourself a hoverseat.
