Audi Q5 blower no longer works since the cabin air filter has been replaced

Hey, I had a similar problem with my 2016 Audi A4 last year. The blower motor was actually defective and had to be replaced. The garage found the fault quickly - there was no airflow and the ventilation was making funny noises. Replacing the blower motor was a little time-consuming because the dashboard had to be partially dismantled, but it was definitely necessary. A faulty blower can lead to serious problems, especially if the windshields cannot be defogged properly. I would advise you to have this checked as soon as possible. It's best to go to a specialist workshop that knows Audi well. Best regards!

Hey, thanks for the info! Do you happen to remember how much you paid back then? Has anything else come up for you since then? Best regards!

Hey, yes, I can help you with that. After I went to the mechanic, the defect in the fresh air blower was repaired. The cost of replacing the defective blower motor was €365. Since the replacement, everything has been running smoothly again and there have been no further problems. I hope this helps you! Good luck with the repair! Best regards!

Hey, thanks for the info! 365 sounds reasonably fair if the problem is solved afterwards. I'll tackle the repair now and see if I can find a good specialist garage. In any case, I don't want to keep experimenting with workshops that don't know their stuff. Thanks again for your help! Best regards!
