I'm getting cold air blowing through two dash vents and both the rear passenger vents. The drivers side front vent is fine and so is the right hand centre vent. The left hand centre vent and front passenger vent are all blowing ice cold air even though the others are warm.
I have set the idrive to warm and the climate but the mix match is weird. I have changed the dash trim recently could I have disturbed anything behind?

I wonder if the flaps are blocked?, even on the basic system which I have as well the window can be warm and the centre can be cold at the same time. Might need a bit of investigation.

Will that be the flaps below the pollen filter?

I seem to have the sane problem as the original poster of this thread. The two centre vents are set on red, ie the hottest setting on the idrive. However the drivers side centre vent blow out warm (not even hot) but the passenger side centre vent blows out cold. So one centre vent blows out cold while the neighbouring centre vent blows out warm. Could there be something blocking the passenger side vents?
