So I've just got myself an R reg 2,5 cdx stick.
it has a few probs but the main thing is,
the car has normal running temperature but the heating inside the car is cold even on Hi fan 9,
is that the hbv or something else?
-
Could be a vacuum problem in the hbv or the temp servo. Check throroughly for disconnected vacuum hoses or split pipes as a first port of call :y
-
Ok will do mate, thanks
-
So I have checked the vacume pipes and all seem ok,
How can i check the Hbv vacum?
were can i find the temp servo?
I have flushed the system, and bled it correctly, the pipes to the heater matrix are getting hot,
and all I get is a bearly warm air flow from my heater
Any ideas what else I could check.

You should see them in the hole, there is a motor on it, on the nob 1z they come out togethere on motor 1z u should se the pipes in the hole, get your hand inside the radio hole go up and feel about should be on the right hand side held on by a clip, then shoud be able to pull it down and out.

So I have had my hand up as far as I can,
I have used a mirrow to have a look, I have even taken out the left half of the fuse relay box out to have a look, all that is there is a thick bundel of cabels and the air tunnel for the rear of the car.
there is no vac pipes there,
I have now even taken the clocks out to get a better look.

just looked in book a bit more, it says in the book that there are 3 types one with air pipes and nobs one with motors and air pies, and there is a model with its own air pump, but dose not say were it is, put in pic it shows a can with 1 pipe coming out and a motor at othere end, can you see if there is somthing looking like that, seems funny that there is not alot of info on the motor model. try behind the glove box, remember to take bat off and leave 10min b4 removing it as the air bag could go off.
