Got a problem with my heaters in corsa b.They blow fine only the air they blow is warm but not that warm,it seems to be luke warm air!!The car isnt loosing any coolant and its not the thermostat as this is new in last 2 months.The car also doesnt seem to heat up to any more than about 86 to 88 degrees.Ive tried a coolant change and bled the system three times now but still no warm/hot air.Help me!!!!!!!! there is a pic attached to show the operating temp of my car which was taken after 30 mins on motorway at 70mph constantly.

Mine too, the car is either hot or cold - climate control is the best invention since sliced bread.
