Hi Tipper

Are you sure there are no air locks and the Heater matrix is full of water...

Tou may have to ask other memebers how to ensure that the matrix is full.

I've seen posts about running with the expansion bottle cap off for a while, Jacking up the front of the car,
etc...

Best get an expert to make a recommendation.....

Hope you're warm soon

Tony

Hi Tipper,
Run the engine until it's warmed up & then turn the heater blower on full.

Then check the matrix outlet pipe....if it's cold or starts going cold then the matrix is blocked or restricted.

It seems to be a common problem lately :)
