Hi Melo,

Welcome to the forum. I am unable to offer any help but thought i would give you a free bump :)

Couple of questions, these may not be relevant but it may help to narrow down the possible cause.

Do you have Climatic aircon (manual dials) or Dual Zone where you have an LCD display than shows the temperature.
How is your refrigerant - has it been changed in the last 2 years?
Is there a clicking sound from behind the glovebox, if there is it could be the flap motor playing up.

And on a more serious not. We need photos of your GTI  :wink:

Hi!thx for the reply :) well I just bought the car back about 2 months ago after i sold my 1.4 scirocco due to mu failure twice in a year..but anyway after a few days of driving my mkv gti i notice the aircon started to blow warm air so I decided to change the compressor cost me about 600 Singapore dollar about 280 USD after it was replaced the aircon did became colder after the compressor change but after a few km of driving I notice the most left n right vent started to blow out warmer air compare to the center 2 vent n every time I had to off the aircon n on it back again for the 2 corner vent to blow cold air again but after awhile it will turn warm again..i went back to the shop n told them the problem they flush out the whole system n refilled it back to the level according to the label that was on my car..but still the problem continue :( mine is a dual zone if I'm not wrong..I used vagcom to scan n i had only 1 fault code 00883-ignition switch (D) terminal S.
