Driver ventilated seat back not working

Featured Replies

I got a 2018 L&K Tdi superb last year. A few days back the Driver Back stopped blowing air, the seat bottom does blow fine, took it to the stealership and it shows up on the scan as well , They now tell me the Fan alone is not available as a separate item and the whole seat needs a replacement. Any help with the part numbers ? Someone has taken it apart ? is it a serviceable thing or they are right the whole seat needs to be changed ?

 

I am in INDIA its really really hot and the ventilated seat feels like heaven.

Thanks people .

The motor is available as a separate part.

 

send me your vin number and I’ll look it up this evening for you.

Hilarious. And they wonder why more and more customers lose trust in the dealer network. I guess you need a new engine when a water pump fails too… 🙄

Yeah, both exactly the same.

Water pump is new car, it’s a slightly grubby oil filler cap which needs new engine.

I bet that’s a pain to replace though, or is it attached under the base with vent pipes?

Complete seat out and base part or fully dismantled I’d’ve thought.

Hello! I have a Skoda Superb from 2018, and the ventilation in the back of the driver's seat no longer works, the passenger's seat works perfectly. I get the following error on VCDS:
  1 Fault Found:
657156 - Fan 1 for Left Seat Backrest
           B14C9 31 [00001001] - No Signal
Has anyone changed the seat back fan? On the Internet, I did not find any tutorial or information about the procedure for changing the fan. Thank you!

Just changed mine last week. It's behind top left( rhd driver seat) . Under the foam. 

Few pictures attached. Although I feel it isn't blowing as much air as before. 

Cheers.

Thank you for the pictures, was it difficult to install the cover?

I had got it done from an upholstery guy. So don't really know but should have been fairly straightforward.
