- Come join me on my journey to get an AliExpress rear vent unit to fit my VW Passat B8 GTE.
The original mission was to fix the left air flapper control by using a "drop in" replacement unit, however, it did not just drop in!

By me!
Very good explanation how to remove the rear air vent. Extremely helpful. Many thanks.
Thanks for that! I might receive my Aliexpress vent this week.
The logos on the original might be on the upper side, mine was :)
Thanks again for the video
Nice job mate, I just wondering which unit I should order from aliexpress are they all the same?
Cheers, if they are replicas of the original item then should be *mostly* the same :) The one I got was this one: tinyurl.com/3shxd5v9 Probably best to search by part number to narrow it down a little VW PN: 3GD819203
Brilliant explanation, thanks for doing that for us. Can I ask why didn't you just change the air direction tab with one from the new unit?
Cheers, good question, I can't recall why I didn't just change the deflection flapper bit only, I would imagine that on initial inspection it was not straight forward or possible due to parts not being the same or non removable so based on that I though it would be easier to swap entire unit!
Ok understood. Going to do my own one on my Passat GT. Wish me luck.
You'll be fine, good luck!
My back vents in my Passat B8 are only blowing cold air even on HI how can i solve it?
Did you solve that? I have the same problem
@@nICkkkkkos no i couldn’t but i learned that it was chronically problematic in B8s, the AC motors should be replaced with new ones. Front ones are problematic too, let you know
@@omertan5091same problem with my seat leon 2021
How do you change drivers side vent?
Dunno, not had the pleasure of that one yet!
