Title: Yet another heating problem
Post by: Paulus on 12 November 2007, 12:31:22

I am at a loss…I am not getting any warmth out of the air vents. I’ve flushed the hell out of the coolant system, so I am 99.99% sure that it’s completely clear. I have changed the HBV for a new one, I’ve checked all of the vac pipes in the engine bay, I have reset the flap servos in the cabin and the pipes going through the bulkhead are really hot.

What’s next?  [smiley=cry.gif]

Had a simular problem, it turned out that the arms had come off the motor which controlled the flaps for distribution.

Look under footwells, sat in drivers seat they are on the left by your foot, unclip the plastic cover from the motor and you will see a black plastic arm, this is attached to your flaps and motor.

Mine had popped off the motor luggs.

Right then...the matrix pipes are getting REALLY hot, so I don't think it's a blockage. I checked the servo/link arm and it is attached, but does not move whatsoever!!!!!

What controls this motor? Where are the connections?

Anybody? I can't use my car until I sort this as it is so cold. I have to wear my motorbike gloves.
