Up to the end of model year 2007, the back pressure door was moved by Airflow door motor (V71). As of the end of model year 2007, the Airflow door motor has been discontinued as a running change. On vehicles without Airflow door motor, the air flow door is operated via a curved washer and lever by Recirculation door Motor (V113). Refer to=> [ Recirculation Door Motor (V113) ] Recirculation Door Motor (V113). Therefore note the correct allocation of the Climatronic control module (J255) , if the allocation or the adaptation is not OK this is detected during basic setting and stored as a malfunction. Refer to the Electronic Parts Catalog.

The change to the door has no influence on the A/C controls on vehicles with manual A/C (without automatic A/C) (the door is controlled only when the manual A/C is adjusted).

On vehicles with an automatic A/C, the Climatronic control module (J255) was already changed at the end of MY 2007. Refer to Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA). The Climatronic control module, part number 8P0 820 043 beginning with index AE can be entered, via the "adaptation", and the version of the door in the air outlet to the defroster vents in the instrument and number of control motors on the A/C unit (with and without Airflow door motor (V71) ) (Climatronic control module ) check using Vehicle diagnosis, testing and information system (VAS5051B) under "Guided Fault Finding".
