It happened a few weeks ago with my 97 Ghia. The heat was working fine on the Authobahn, then when i got off, and slowed down, all I got was cold air. Now the heat doesnt work at all. Is this a common problem?

It is common for the heater matrix to block up.
Check the pipes going in & out of the matrix, they should both be hot. If the inlet is hot & the outlet is cold then the heater matrix is blocked.

Lack of coolant in the cooling system will cause the heater to blow cold, assuming that the fluid leak you describe is coolant
