#1: Very weak flow from windscreen air vents Author: dangerpowers, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon Feb 18, 2013 5:22 am ---- Hi all, I'm having a problem with my air vents.
The flow from the footwell and main vents are fine and pump out normally, but the upper vents really struggle and no longer clear the windscreen.
I did recently changed the pollen filter, but that's all I've done air circulation wise. I also have had the odd occasion that all the blowers have been low and even had no heat, but that has been quite rare.
Does anyone have any ideas? Many thanks.

Yeah could be. Last summer my air con wasnt cooling properly so it might not be working.

Have you noticed any issues with the engine temp?
Have you got the heater set to recirculate or fresh air?

I almost always have it on fresh air. The oil temp sits at 90, and the coolant temp is usually at 70-80 and raises to 90 when sat in traffic.

the flap not working well to the windscreen direction

Is the flap hard to get to?
