I would start by flushing the heater matrix...


remove the pipes from the quick release connectors into the bulkhead.

off cut of hose to drain under the car on one, hose pipe on the other.

run hose for a few mins on full, then swap the pipes over and do it again.

reconnect pipes and see how it goes  :y
