Passenger side of central vents blows hot air when all is set to 16
Hi,
I have an end of 2012 320d M sport. Recently discovered this issue that when setting both sides to 16 degrees and opening all vents, the central passenger vent will blow out much warmer air compared to the rest of the vents. Should I be worried and how would I go on about fixing this? Thanks. Insia |

The problem is that from the central vents, the left blows hot air, the right cold when the controller is set to the middle and temperatures for both are at 16.

What happens when you turn it up or down, does the blending change as you'd expect? Another factor is timing from changing the settings and cabin temperature. Some reactions can be in conflict at the extreme settings. 16.5C may be completely different, as it is a regulated temperature. 16C is also referenced as 'LOW'. |

I've also tried to set the passenger dial to 16 and driver to 28. Driver side then gets very warm and passenger just goes slightly 'cooler' than that which is still warm. |

Tried that too and still no luck. It just doesnt make sense for one vent to be warm and for all others to be cold
