today i tried to sort the heater out

changed the thermostat, for my old 1.4 one as i figured it was fine as the heater worked with that engine

made sure there was nothing in the coolant system airblock wise, with help from my mechanic friend

much to my annoyance, when i took the car out, the heater still blows cold air, as if there is no water getting to the heater matrix

how can this be?
what is wrong with my car?

5k lol thats not gettin it out ur system thats bein silly really

whether it be a itr or not there are far better cars that u could insure and still be a mile better than ur corsa or any of our corsa's.

u could spend 10k on corsa on tuning/suspension and still would not perform/handle like some standard cars for 5k

If your talking about the incar heaters... Look down the left hand side about where your cdplayer would be, there is a cable that runs along here, it controls the back of the heater make sure its all clipped on properly, i found this out last year and was what was causing my heater to not..heat up

no its because its an air con heater matrix pipe, it has a valve on the pipe feeding the matrix, this closes off when the air con is going..... or something like that, anywahy the valve seems to be shut all the time now, so just need a new bit of pipe and were away
