Title: Changing climatronic controls from 05 GTI to same but with dual link button
Post by: ReflexRob on July 15, 2015, 01:11:12 pm
Adjusting each side independently is doing my nut in.

Can I fit the same panel but with the dual button in the space below the off button without hassle?

Cheers

Hi mate,
If you mean you're fed up of adjusting the passenger side and drivers side temperature then heres a fix:

if you hold down the AUTO button for three seconds, it will synchronize the temperature setting on both sides of the car to match that of the drivers side. When ever the driver changes his temp setting it will also change it on the passenger side, until a passenger changes their side.

Hope this helps bud  :driver:

LMAO !  :laugh: :laugh: I changed the whole unit to the one with the 'Dual' button for this purpose  :jumping:  :fighting:

It is plug and play mind and a very easy swap, it takes up a blank space too so looks better but I probs wouldn't have bothered knowing that little work around  :signLOL:
