Default Weak airflow AC e61

So got a bit cold today and for the first time touched the dial to manually crank up fan.

But no matter what i did in i drive, or by knobs it would get a good flow.

Even when setting only dashboard and one went it was just taking it easy.

II could hear the air blower going full steam and air moving inside console.

Battery new and 90% charge
Even took of the inlet filter under hood.

Made no difference.

IIt cant be this weak.. Can it?

You might have a faulty vent flap. Did you try both sides? Did you try adjusting your climate settings?

Yeah tried both sides, aswell i could hear the blower amping up after every increase on dial intill it was on max and sounding like a storm, but still low air was coming out.

Where do i check the flaps?
Is there any diy page/video.

I could also hear the air change ways when changing where it should go.

Actually, your best bet would be to check if it threw any IHKA codes.
