Neil, Go with this one... and it has a lifetime warranty too! https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/vw-audi-hvac-heater-control-valve-171819809emy Easy to replace, drop the spare tire, remove clam shell, use vice grips or similar to clamp off coolant flow, unhook control wire. Remove replace and put everything back together. Take photos with phone along the way. Good luck!
