2012 R60 Heater Blower Half Works

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has seen in the R60's where the heater blower will only increase power up to about half way. I found out as the temps got colder that, even though I can turn up the blower past 50%, no increase of air is felt coming out of the vents. This is on manual mode, not auto A/C.

Also, may be related, a couple of times the blower motor would be on full blast at startup, even though the selector was turned down to 1. A simple click up to 2, solved it. Then it would be fine at 1 again. Only did it on start up.

Thanks, in advance.

Colby

So, new development with this issue. Due to a battery drain warning, I put the car on the charger. It was at 56%. So, I charged it up to 100%. Since then the blower has been working fine. Not sure if coincidence, as the weather has been warmer. Will keep an eye on it.
