Interior fan problem

Since monday my hvac is not blowing air properly in the cabin anymore.
When i turn up the ventilation motor to the max, nothing more than a gentle breeze is coming out of the ventilation grills. I hear the motor the blowing full power, but the air doesn't come. Is no difference whatever positions i select to distribute the air into the cabin.

Anyone else had this problem? Any ideas what is the cause of this.

Have you had the in-cabin air filter replaced recently?

As jsh139 mentioned above, I think it's very likely you changed the cabin air filter recently and the fresh air flap was pushed past its normal end stop. This SIB should help you fix the issue: SIB 64 03 21 Airflow rate in the vehicle interior is too low.pdf

Thanks for the information. The filter was replaced recently by the dealer at 20 december 2022.
The problem did resolve itself today though. I have been changing all the HVAC settings all week hoping the flaps would reposition and start working again, with no succes though.
Today i was driving and messing again with all the settings, and suddenly i realized that had not yet tried turning off and on the system while driving.
So i did and after turning the HVAC back on, all was working again blowing air and heating the cabin.
I will defintly keep the filter in mind if the problem reoccurs.
