AirCon fault codes

At the weekend I ran a diagnostic check on a friends A2, just to show him how VagCom worked. He was not aware of any problems with the car so it came as a surprise to see 4 faults on the climate control. The faults were cleared twice but showed again on the re-scans.
Luckily the car has waranty but I wondered if anyone else had seen similar problems.

Spike, from my research on A4 climate systems it would appear that the motors controlling the flaps have failed, quite common on the A4 it would seem, less so on an A2, they are about £60 each from VAG parts, several A4 members have removed them, applied 12v and they worked again, they don't usually receive the ful 12v so can stick, foun this on audifans.net after searching the A4 forum and climate control.
 
Hi tdiman
Thanks for the info. Wonder if the 'sticky' flap control motors could be the result of leaving the climate control switched off for long periods.
On the A2, access to some of the motors requires removal of the dash - is this the same on the A4

Cheers Spike
