Just a quick question about the centre fans with climate control.

I think the centre fans are not working entirely correctly on my car.

When I press auto the fans in the car start.
I can feel hot air blowing out of the side vents.
But the air coming out of the central vents doesn't seem to be blowing out at the same speed/pressure. But I can still feel warm air around the vent.

If I select the Central Air Distribution button I can feel hot air blowing out of both the side and central vents.

Is it normal that the central fans/vents don't always blow air at the same speed/pressure as the side fans/vents?

The central vent unit has been moved a few times in order to remove the dash.
Wondering if a wire or something might be damaged.

Mine is the same, I think it's the way it's designed to work.

If you press the button for blowing air in your face, it turns the center ones on. Without any buttons at all pressed, and just the climate control turned on mine blows out the side vents, and also a little onto my feet (I think).

Same here...
 
I once got told by a dealer that the climate works by blowing the air to certain parts of the car to get it to the desired temperature quickly.
