[Eliot Sennett]

Guys - this is outstanding! Thank you so much. I'm really nervous about messing with the car's electronics or (god forbid) removing the dash, but this looks really easy. This list really rocks!

It could be a valve or the vacuum that operates the valve. Audi's air
control valves are designed to fail in the defrost position. You can test
the vacuum theory by inducing vacuum with a throttle off test. Make sure you
have enough revs so the engine is sucking against the closed throttle. Going
downhill in a lower gear works. If this 'cures' the problem, it's a vacuum
leak.
