Temperature Doors in the Left and Right Radiator Housing

NOTE:

On the "Convenience" A/C system, the front right temperature doors -item  1- "Upper Right Temperature Door" and the front left -item  2- "Upper Left Temperature Door" are each actuated by an actuator (Right Temperature Door Motor -V159- and Left Temperature Door Motor -V158-). Both temperature doors for the right rear vents, refer to -item  3- "Lower Right Temperature Door" and the left rear -item  4- "Lower Left Temperature Door" are connected to each other by a connecting rod; they are actuated via the Rear Temperature Door Motor -V137-. Refer to OVERVIEW - ATTACHMENTS FOR HEATER AND A/C UNIT AND AIR INTAKE HOUSING .

On the "Basis" A/C system, the temperature door for the right instrument panel vents -item  1- "Upper Right Temperature Door" and the front and rear right footwell vents -item  3- "Lower Right Temperature Door" as well as the temperature door for the left instrument panel vents -item  2- "Upper Left Temperature Door" and the front and rear left footwell vents -item  4- "Lower Left Temperature Door" are connected to each other by the shafts (refer to -item  13- "Lower Temperature Door Shaft" and -item  12- "Upper Temperature Door Shaft"). The right -item  3- "Lower Right Temperature Door" and the left rear -item  4- "Lower Left Temperature Door" temperature door shafts are connected to each other by a connecting rod; they are both actuated by the Temperature Regulator Door Motor -V68-. Refer to OVERVIEW - ATTACHMENTS FOR HEATER AND A/C UNIT AND AIR INTAKE HOUSING .

    • On the "Basis" A/C system, for the left and center instrument panel vents, refer to -item  1- "Upper Right Temperature Door".
    • In this illustration, the temperature door is shown in the "cooling" position.
  3. Lower Right Temperature Door
    • On the "Convenience" A/C system, for the rear right footwell vents
    • On the "Basis" A/C system, for the front right and rear right footwell vents, refer to -item  1- "Upper Right Temperature Door".
    • In this illustration, the temperature door is shown in the "cooling" position.
  4. Lower Left Temperature Door
    • On the "Convenience" A/C system, for the rear left footwell vents
    • on the "Basis" A/C system, for the left front and the left rear footwell vents, refer to -item  1- "Upper Right Temperature Door".
    • In this illustration, the temperature door is shown in the "heat" position.

      NOTE:

      In MY 2009, as a running change, a new version of the Auxiliary Heater Heating Element -Z35- is being installed (the heating elements are a bit more narrow); be sure to use the correct version and note the allocation .

  11. Foam Seal
    • Only on vehicles equipped with the "Convenience" A/C system; present to separate the air flow between the right and left side
  12. Upper Temperature Door Shaft
