    I've not experienced this one, but I have seen a few posts about heater control flap problems. Usually it's all hot or all cold and nothing inbetween.

    The quickest way to diagnose the fault would be a VAG-COM session, it can interrogate the control units and simulate various conditions, this should help to identify if the flap is capable of moving or not - then you will know if it is a mechanical / actuator problem or a controller / input problem.
