2010 ST - electronic climate control dual zone
The heat is fading from hot to cool/cold. When I am moving it is working fine then when i come to a stop either to pull over and idle or sometimes just waiting for a light to change it starts getting cold. When I start moving again it goes back to hot.
When I push the button from hot to cold and back to cold I hear a creaking/grinding noise as the temperature blend door moves. I am going to get the blend door motors changed next week under my warranty direct extended warranty at my local repair shop.
I am concerned if that is 100% the problem or if vacuum is involved. I took out that little check valve under the hood and blew into it and sucked air and it seems to work. I know when i hit the button to close the vent from outside air I hear that vacuum sound so I assume the vacuum is working. It is weird that the blend door would automatically move to hot when I am on the gas driving and move to cold when I slow down and stop.
any ideas?
