you can change the bulbs in the lcd display

the problem with one side blowing hot is more than likely caused by the blend motors, is there a picture of a book and a ! on the lower right of the display? If so then it has logged a fault and will need to be diagnosed using T4 at a dealer, blend motor faults are the usual cause for the symptoms you describe.

Hi thanks yes there is both those symbols on in the display, so i wont be able to tackle this myself will i ? how easy are the bulbs to replace cheers ANDY

You could tackle this yourself but unless you have relatively good mechanical experience then i wouldn't advise it, blend motors are not nice to replace and most of the dash needs to come to bits to do it.

first off you need to get the fault codes read and go from there, it may not be blend motors but 9 times out of 10 it is

check this out for bulb replacment.

As for the air distribution blowing hot, as already mentioned it prob the blend motors.

If you have the RAVE information cd there is a troubleshooting guide on there. I used it to locate that the pressure switch was faulty on my system
