SEAT Ibiza FR - Climate/Aircon/Heater issue... - stuntmonkey

Hi Guys

I managed to talk the missus out of her money pit Cooper S and she decided to get an Ibiza FR.

After looking round for a few weeks we picked up a great example this weekend. 2005, 57k on the clock and 7 stamps in the book(all but one main dealer). great looking car

but...

the car has climate control but there seems to be an issue. As soon as it it turned on at its lowest setting the fan makes a noise as though it is on full but nothing comes from the forward vents. adjusting the fan speed makes no difference.
Air does still seem to come from the windscreen vents and the top vents for the side windows but this seems to be hot air although the temp is at its lowest setting?! im stumped.

has anyone come across this before? ive gone right through the seat forums but nobody seems forthcoming with any information(possibly as im classed as a "newbie")

These problems apart i am very impressed by the Ibiza. incredibly nippy and well put together and best of all the girlfriend loves it!

I would suggest that the first thing to check would be the cabin/pollen filter.Cheap to replace but often overlooked.hth
