AlexM Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I have a couple of issues.. Firstly, I'm not getting anything above lukewarm air from the heater. I've done a complete fluid/coolant flush (twice, first one wasn't intentional ), checked for water in the pipes above the engine, they also get nice and toasty at all points, and run the car on a steep hill with the radiator cap off. What else can I try? I need the ability to defrost my windows before next month! Secondly there is a clicking noise coming from the passenger footwell when the heater system is running. I presume this is a fan or somesuch on its way out? I'm not sure how worried I should be about this, as it's still doing it's job - it is very annoying though. I'm also looking for alternatives to the huge box currently behind my dash. I'm going to remove the aircon, but the heater setup is still ridiculously big and heavy - how hard would it be to get a customised setup with a smaller matrix which is primarily intended for defrosting/demisting the front window? This is primarily a track/fun car so having the ability to blow warm air at my feet isn't really a concern! Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Steamy windows, no heat, could be the matrix on the way out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Sounds you like you need a heated front screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 Not at ~£300 Paul, that's more than 10% of the value of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
