hackin_n_bashin Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 What did you have done to it? Could be just be an airlock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

listy Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Heater matrix or air lock I'd say. Hope for the latter heater matrix is a pita dash out job iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Is the carpet on the passenger side damp/wet!? Def sounds like an airlock or heater matrix failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) Do a search on here as there are control rods that easily fall off and cause the heater to blow only cold air. Air locks work there way out of the system if the cooling system is working correctly. Does your car have an expansion tank and is it approx half full when the engine is cold ?
