I have a 2007 Leon TDI Sport with dual climate control. I have a problem seemingly with the electrics. When I put the car into reverse or use the front windscreen washer, the heater fan speeds up. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Have you only just bought this car? It does not actually speed up; the recirculation flap closes and so alters the fans note. This is to prevent fumes from the exhaust entering the cabin in reverse or washer fluid smells getting into the cabin.

Thanks very much Crasher. I've had the car from new but have just noticed this happening. I automatically thought it was a fault but when I think about it, what you say makes a lot of sense! I think it's a superb car.
Thanks again
