Climate Control Issue - Passenger Footwell Vent & Dash Center Vent

[macanchan]

My passenger side floor vent / flapper will not close. Constantly blows air unless climate control is turned off. The up/down toggle on the center console wont turn the fan/system off on passenger side floor. I need to go through the screen menu to turn off the fan.

Climate Control button on center console does not bring up the menu on the screen intermittently when the car is powered ON. Maybe it's still loading.

Driver-side works perfectly fine but feels like there may be a lack of airflow due to the passenger-side footwell hogging all the air.

I also noticed no air is coming out from the top center of the dash next to the sports chrono/clock/compass. Regardless of setting, this vent seems to stay closed.

Have you tried adjusting through the settings (wheel cog) in the Climate Menu?

Yes, I went through that menu. Did you try it out? It doesn't change the airflow.

My Macan is in for PPF install at the moment, so I can't check it unfortunately. I will check EOD tomorrow when I pick it up.

I would appreciate if you could share with us the quote for your PPF?

I haven't had issues with the climate control button again. it pulls up the menu now as long as you arent in camera mode.

Not yet! I'm taking the car to the dealer today to service the AC, Sat Radio, and a rocker side skirt issue.

Thanks @macanchan let us know if they solve all your problems and how ;-)

My car has been at the dealership since Monday.. I'm itching to call them for an update. I want my Turbo back!

 

[macanchan]

Pending approval from Porsche to have the climate control unit replaced under warranty. I hope this fixes the issue.

Update: I brought the car back to the dealership Monday and was lucky enough to speak with the shop foreman. I explained the AC issue and that the technician ordered the control panel and we both agreed it should've been an actuator not a control panel. So hopefully this gets resolved this week.
