Technical Heater only blowing hot?
No, but it's better than when they only blow cold! Quite usual to either be hot or cold - some can do both though!
There's a way to fix it, but that's best left to someone technical to explain. Have you done a search in case it's been asked before?

The heater valve is most likely allowing water through even though it is in the closed position, they are not the best and do not seal billiantly, although some are better than others in my experience.
I would of course check that the valve is actually operating when you move the lever. Remove the battery and bulkhead insulation and you will see the valve. Get someone to work the lever and watch to make sure the valve is moving.
When moving you will always get air flow into the car whether the fan is on or not, shutting off the fresh air intake flap should help stop this though.

with a small allen key you can adjust the cable position on the arm of the heater tap. after a while of playing with it you can get it to blow cold and hot!

Thanks lads i'll give that a try. Mean while instead of starting another thread do you know anywhere where i can get some offroad tyres and outside door weather strips?
Many thanks, Lewis.
Many thanks, Lewis.
Do you mean door seal or the wheather strip which goes by the glass? If its to short or damaged, swap it with one from inside. I can help you if it's the door seal you're after.

Yeah the weather strip was wondering where/if you can get them anywhere? as my outside ones split and would rather replace it.
