hi guys
iv gone through all the heater threads to try and figure out my problem.
iv got a 1999 punto s60 and i had to renew the thermostat just before crimbo as it stuck open. done the job and bled the system. heaters worked a dream even when i was parked up with engine running.
but over the last week the heaters have started to blow cold when parked up with the engine running.
while on the move they still work a treat.
parked up and temp gos up and the rad fan kicks in as normal.
heaters blow on all settings.
switches feel the same and not sloppy.
no funky smells.
no loss of coolent.
for the love of money i cant get my head around this.
a friend has told me it sounds like the matrix could be blocked and to flash it through and top up and bleed the system.
any idea's or is my friend right???
cheers
