Hi everyone, (I'd like to add that i've been searching for a fix on this issue for a few months, but the story below threw my research out the window)

I bought my MK5 TDI Comfortline golf off a relative around 6 months ago with Climatic(?) controls, the 3 dial & seat warmer setup. ...

I had an incident the other day where my aircon locked all controls and it blasted very hot air, had no direction settings or fan speed, stopped the engine after a lot of fiddling and when I restarted it was locked again on the new setting(not so hot) A little further along I stopped the engine...
