 Volkswagen Passat - 96 1.8 Heater and aircon issue. - carmalade
Taking this one step at a time,the heater fan issue could be a fault with the fan speed resistor.This is a fairly cheap fix ;the part is around £25 and access is behind the glovebox.Smell from the heater when on hot could be the matrix leaking.This is a major repair and probably cost more than the value of the car.Lastly ,the a/c fault could require a re-gas ,but I would be very surprised if this was not the only issue.Yes ,the black plastic dust covers are the access ports for the a/c sytem.hth
