Anyone else had this problem where you left foot is freezing but right foot is toasting and you just can't get any heat to clutch foot?

Any mods you can suggest?

Thanks
 
Sounds like a circulation problem, job for a GP?
 
On a serious note, I've just been out in my van and thought I'd see where the warm air was coming from, so I put my left hand down by my feet and the warm air seemed to be blowing from just to the right of the centre of the van and it was blowing at what seemed to be a 45 degree angle straight onto my left foot, so either your heater ducts are different or they may be blocked.
 
On a related note, I’d like warm air on my feet and cool on my face. The old Volvo 340 did this, but not seen it in any cars since!
Any ideas? Ps T6 DSG.

Rayco,

I had a similar problem after I bought my 2005 T5, in my case basically no air was coming out of the outlet on the driver's side (left in Sweden).
The issue was that the plastic air duct "pipe" had come out of alignment completely when a previous owner assembled the lower trim that goes around the gear stick pillar.
If you don't feel a proper air flow with the fan on full speed from the vent, but it is ok on the passenger side, it might be the same issue.
Super simple to realign the duct, just make sure the loose extension duct "clicks" on to the main air duct and that the baffle is aligned with the air outlet in the trim panel before fixing it with the screws.
Hope this helps you or someone else!
Cheers
