When the fan in my sons polo stopped 'working', I replaced the pollen filter. It was fine after that.

I have been under the bonnet this morning, I removed the cover from the centre blower motor area and observed the 2 flaps.
On recirculation both are closed as you would expect, but switch to normal mode and they only move slightly so not much air gets through. Both the flaps feel very easy to move and kind of flop around suggesting they are not connected to the motor properly, and if I manually move them so they are open then the interior air flow is excellent. However switching between recirc and normal puts them back in the almost closed position. I have identified the control motor, and trying to remove it from the side of the box is proving somewhat difficult as getting at one of the screws is somewhat awkward.

another update, I took the motor off the side of the flaps and the motor spindle seems to be nice and tight.
The small plastic drive connection between the motor and flaps also seems to be pretty secure but when mated back together there seems to be some play somewhere. I took the plastic drive off the flaps and placed it onto the motor drive, there is no apparent play at this point. Running out of time I have put it all back together, and of course its behaving just as before. I have noticed that the flaps move to different positions, so if I switch between recirc and normal a few times it is possible to get the flaps to be open enough to let air flow through. Found a thread on audiworld with someone having the same problem, and there is a video showing the flaps and mine move nowhere near this amount. http://forums.audiworld.com/showthread.php?t=2813312
