it seems to be a common problem on the bigger v6 cars mate , im having heating problems of my own . i seem to be having only luke warm air even on the highest of setting . Is yours the manual or electronic heating system .
Mines the electric version , just wondering if its a common problem with all electric heating systems . ;)

might try and give it a basic try before i see you , just to see if it makes any difference . i just dont have a hose pipe or an out side tap .   so will just empty the coolent out of all the pipes again and try fresh coolent and antifreeze . for the time being .

thanks guys alot of good advice here will give some of them a try , but i did try the reset proccess , and drove the cdx without the ECO button on , and i think its worked .

but i like the sound of giving it a flushing out and a bit of a service. I will take a trip to my local Vauxhall and see how much they are charging for a service , as volvo are charging £79 for any make . ;)

it has had a new head gasket and cam belt fitted not so long back do you think , the reasembling of the pipes connections to the engine may be causing a problem with this aswell , with pockets of air getting trapped . Im no mechanic its just a theory .  ;)

I`m new with the new automatic heating system , and despite reading the owners manual from back to front , i just cannot understand what is gooing on .

driving out with the temp up hi and a warm engine it blows out luke warm air , and if you drop it down to 24degrees it blows hot air and the car gets lovley and warm .

when driving in cold conditions at speed and the air is 3 degress outside and is keping the v6 engine cold not getting to 90degrees , the warmth in the car struggles to get warm even on hi . And somtimes will not completley demist the top half of the windscreen , so driving in the dark can somtimes get a little worrying .

im not totally sure if im using it correctly or is there a fault with the system , i assume (hi) should be toasty hot , and    ( Lo) will mean its cool and the aircon will take over . any help or ideas . :-? :-/ :-[

i have found the headlights on my 98 cdx to be pretty poor and somtimes i worry about driving in the dark on country twisty lanes . i have to drive with fog lights on as a back up and the full beam is pretty poor . The headlights on my old carlton are alot better .

tha last car i owned with poor healights was an mondeo , and they were crap.

I have the lights with the blue tint in them , if this helps for any further advice.
