To resolve the issue of incorrect air distribution in the Volkswagen Golf MK VII, you can try this service procedure that will force the air flaps to return to their final positions, ensuring the climatronic system works perfectly. To do this, press and hold the air conditioning and front vent buttons for a few seconds, releasing them when the LEDs start to flash.

Then wait for about 20 seconds for the procedure to complete. When the flaps are adjusting, you will hear a noise under the dashboard, which is completely normal.
