Driving the 08 diesel grande..a nice tidy car.. being used by my son mainly
Last time I had it for a few weeks was early Spring.. no issues.. other than discovering the Heater direction selector wont allow movement to SCREEN ONLY... ( I suspect a parking ticket has dropped in the way..) Issue is still there- blowers on full wont help me flick the thing out of the way
Other grumble.. vaguely related
Cars of this era have no direct FRESH AIR.. its all ducted through the dash.. and the engine coolant is permanently flowing through the same dash... result a constant warming of the @ 26'c air.. to give me @35... how refreshing
A pair of diverter valves at the rear of the engine would seem a great idea...
Less in the coolant system..and only have HOT in the dash in the colder months
