AC or hot air is blowing from all vents(front), rear foot vent, rear pillars and rear left console vent however not from the right console vent. I have digital rear control at the console but whatever setting I set can get the blower working.
The vent is open..I also opened the rear console to check if something is blocking the air ways but nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you
The rear heaters in the D3 are notorius for failing and most owners have at least 1 playing up at any time. The way the rear climate works is that it uses heated air from the front heaters to supply the rear, but if the rears are set any higher than the front then there are additional heaters in the rear that boost the heat to the right temperature. I would imagine either the air ductwork under the centre console to the rear is detached or blocked so no air flow, or if you have air flow then the rear heater has failed as so many do - a vagcom scan should show this up
