Rodent problems

[Craig D. Niederst]

On the way to work last week, I needed to turn on the AC to operate the defroster on my '92 100S. Upon doing so, about 2 lbs of sunflower seed emptied into the passenger foot well (I had the recirc button on). Further investigation today showed that the rodent (probably a chipmunk) entered through the fresh air flap on top of the heater box. I was surprised to see that there is no screen on the inside of this opening to prevent rodents, leaves, etc from getting in. I looked in the Family Album, and there appear to be no pics of the heater box (just of the blower motor housing). Should there be some sort of a screen in place on this opening, or did Audi neglect to think of this? I sure hope I don't need to get a cat...
