Re: No heat from my side
Possibly a blocked heater matrix, or a faulty / broken air distribution flap motor / flap control.

Re: No heat from my side
I have the same problem on my DS9. I don't know for how long as I picked the car up in August and only noticed it when it started to get cold in November.
Playing around with it I did notice that if i press the full blast button (max fan speed and noisy) I can get heat through the drivers side, turn it down a notch and then it's ok too..... but if i then turn the fan down too low it reverts to cold.
One compromise i found was setting to 28 degrees on both sides and just having middle ventilation. Then i close the vent closest the door and only the middle dash one is blowing. Then I tilt this away from me and the passenger side which is hot towards me. A big pfaff i know.
I mentioned it to the DS dealer when he called just before xmas to try and book me in. Didn't have time to see him pre xmas, so booked for jan and now there's a tube strike next wk so had to rebook that. As we have a weeks holiday in mid feb they arent seeing me till the 21st Feb.
So much for the DS concierge claims etc....my guy is all but uncontactable. No direct number or email address, and when i go through to central switchboard and ask to speak to him the line rings is not answered and goes dead. Wastes a lot of my time.
