ryan lang Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 check your radiator isnt losing water, if it is its most likely your heater matrix leaking. i have a wet passenger side floor from it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gainzy Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Has anybody got any info on changing the heater matrix mines leaking in ps on the bonus I have no carpets so I clean it up straight away haha must be the matrix, I have heard it's quite a job! Are the exspensive to buy or is it best to just flush the matrix out? What you's reckon? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davehart Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Its a dash off job I'm afraid I've recently done mine as it was cracked at the top. Pretty easy job to be honest, the challenge is remembering where everything goes when you put it back together Guide for it here: :: http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?34134-Heater-Matrix-Dash-Removal-Guide-* Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dan106 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 What usually makes the heater matrix leak? As in is it fixable without a new matrix, anyone know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jap91 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 A lad told me to try rad weld in it.. Cant see why iy wouldnt work.. But as i was saying to him, put it in the inlet pipe for matrix at the fire wall.. His mate did it that way and its still good after 2 years Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dan106 Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I chucked a bottle of k seal in and it seems to have sorted it, ill put it directly into the matrix if it starts to leak again Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mad Mike EP82 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Check rubber gromit in the bulk head behind inlet mine was leaking through there because I ran a vac line through it and didn't seal it might help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jap91 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Im nearly sure its the left handside one on the bulk head mate.. Dont think it would make much of a diffrence which pipe to be honest.. Let me know how you get on.. Was your matrix leaking bad?I chucked a bottle of k seal in and it seems to have sorted it, ill put it directly into the matrix if it starts to leak againWhats k seal mate?

dan106 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Its rad weld buddy, ive used it before to seal a leaky rad, it worked then and it seems to have done the trick on the matrix too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jap91 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Have you looked up under the dash to see is it leaking at all?? Let the car get to half way on the temp gauge and see does it drip.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dan106 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Yeah the dripping stopped a couple of minutes after i put the k seal in the rad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jap91 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Good job mate.. Did you just put it directly into the matrix rad? Pitty i started to take the dash out before i seen this thread.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
