I have the same model as you.
Sorry - but the air from my front blower is 'blowing a gale' on High speed.

Sounds like you have a blockage or restriction somewhere.

Dear List,

The discussion about heat (and lack thereof) reminds me to ask if anyone gets
any air volume out of the front heater blower. Mine (83.5, water-cooled)
switches on and off fine and makes a lot of noise, but blows precious little
air. Is this "just the way it is," or is there perhaps something blocking the
ducts? I am comparing the feeble VW flow with the blasts I feel in new cars I
rent pretty regularly for work.
