scottmac1 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Was driving along and all of a sudden the heaters started blowing out cold air when should be hot, just wondering if anyone has had this problem before? Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Most likely a sticky thermostat, worthwhile giving the matrix a flush too whilst youre replacing the thermostat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

davehart Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Just don't rag the pipes off the matrix or you will be pulling the dash to bits like me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scottmac1 Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 No mate, what's the best way to do that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Put a hose (quite high pressure but nothing daft lol) down one of the pipes and a bucket under the other pipe to catch the water, it'll be full of shite i bet. Hope it works for ya Quote Link to post Share on other sites
