Yep, mine 06 did the same thing, the blend actuator door in the dash needs to be replaced, there is also a TSB on it.

Whole dash needs to come out.

I doubt it buddy. Probably just a vacuum leak going to the control head. Check for vacuum leaks under the hood, over by the battery.

If I'm not mistaken... ours doesn't use vacuum control.
