My Ride: 2007 530Xi - Navigation, Premium package, Steptronic.
I actually got to drive the car some this past week, and observed that the LH (driver's side) dash vent does not produce any airflow. I read the manual, altered all the I-Drive Automatic settings to maximum, turned the fan control to max (takes it out of "Auto" mode) and got nothing out of the vent. The little wheel control was set correctly to allow airflow, and the air was blowing a gale from the other three. Questions: 1) Is this something which is software/firmware related?; 2) If not, is it something I can fix myself?
The car is back to the dealer on 4/12 to handle the CD run-on issue, and low Aux input volume, so perhaps this problem will be on the list if I can't remedy it. Any help sincerely appreciated...
