Technical new car with heater problems!
Sure seems to be a lot of these failing after 4 or 5 years...puts you off a 100HP a bit...
that's only 2 I've heard of

:yeahthat:
This isn't a common failure, and certainly not specific to the Panda, can fail in any make or model of car with Climate Control
Hey guys, I'm just going through the 3 or 4 heater topics over the past few weeks and separate posts or reports of others within those various topics with this issue and it adds up to more like 9 or 10, not 2! One dealer reported 3 or 4 alone within a few months.
How many are the same problem though, or even relating to the same vehicle if thats from a general web search.
Try searching similar for Renaults and Peugeots etc
No, good point and that's fair enough of course, I'm on bmw and Saab forums and as we all know *all* makes have their issues and forums show all the problems not the problem free average owners!
(I am referring to topics on this forum, not the whole web!)
Only issue I have is that I wouldn't dream of not having a full warranty on my Beemer but on a little Fiat I don't want to shell out!

On this subject is it better to leave the climate on all the time?
if its blocked - back flush it, if it leaks puts some rad weld in it
I assume you mean AC, if Climate is off you get nothing
If so then it'll do no harm, and I notice no MPG difference. Although a 10-15min of use a week would be adequate.

hi lads, just reading this thread is making me sweat at bit at prices. my heater on my 100hp has very recently stuck on the window demist setting, which frankly is not a major problem this time of the year. its blowing hot and cold, I just cant change the direction I want airflow. will that be old unit out, new 1 in then?
Depends what the fault causing it is, needs to be diagnosed.
