Re: climatcontrol problem.
The problem appears on Auto and on Manual. When I use the Demist function it
makes a jet engine sound because the valves are closed and the air can't
escape. The display is OK.

So on demist you get no air coming from the vents on the top of the dash?
The air is directed by servo motors, maybe one has gone a dealer will be
able to tell you more.
A test would be to change the direction of the airflow and see if you hear
the flaps moving with no air coming out.
