Yes I also have a hearing problem, my drivers footwell is blowing in freezing cold air, it was -1 this morning and the same coming in via footwell. Heat both sides was on 28c and did not feel like it at all. Would love to fix this as I got out the car and my feet were like ice blocks.

If you do a search, you'll find that a clogged heat exchanger is pretty common and has the exact symptoms you describe. A few people have success flushing the system to remove the clog, otherwise the heat exchanger has to be replaced.

Heater core clogged. I just flushed mine out last week. Much better. Make sure to do a reverse flush to break it up. Good luck
