Hello everyone,

I'll try to keep it simple, a3/2015 fwd PFL(USA), I took my car to the dealer after finding some faults on my A/C with OBDELEVEN, they quoted me $500+, and told me that these 2 pieces needed to be changed:

1)5q0907511L
2)5q0907511A

I was able to find the parts cheaper and OEM online and got them. However, I don't have the specific location of the parts, I have a feeling of which one but I'm not 100% sure, Can someone help me?.

I've tried swapping it but the actuators I've found do not have the same part number and dot seem to clear the error after swapping.

This would be very much appreciated.
 
I've seen those errors on VCDS on my FL but they don't seem to cause any issues and just seem to be intermittent and the dealer has never mentioned them.

Is your Air-Con working or are you having issues.

Think the flap is behind the glove box!

I tried that one, there are 2 one of them the one I could get easier does not have the same serial number as the one they mentioned, since it's the same motor I still tried replacing it and nothing changed

For me there's an issue, when turning on the fan for the foot area there is no air coming out of the vents

Do you happen to have the PDF of the part that ends in L?

The L part number seems to reference a Volkswagen part, the same location in the Audi is an A part number.
It also depends on whether you have Climate Control or manual Air con.

Hey I really appreciate the helpl, I wonder why they had me buy the 2 parts then It seems they dont even know what they are doing. I will give it another try replacing it myself based on your diagram.
