could anyone help
ive got an s2 and it gets up to temp[bit hotter than normal -grs-]
but the problem is the fan in the car is cold
ive just changed the thermostat,but its still the same
any advice would help please

 

Initial thoughts; some sort of blockage to your heater matrix??.......has it been bypassed stopping water from "entering the matrix"?? (sounds 2 much like a film )

 

no its not been bypassed
i was goin to flush the heater matrix out ,thats what i thought

 

proberly the heater matrix mate, flushing it rarely fixes it, other than that make sure when u turn the nob onto hot the cable moves what clips onto the heater box can be knocked off with getting in and out of the car and could be on cold!.

 

Make sure the cable is connected to the temp control and also to the temp flap lever on the heater box!

 

fireblade, switch the pipes around so the coolant flows the opposite direction usually sorts it!! but if its proper fooked get a new one! i got a new pattern part for Ł15 quid!! piece of piss to fit!!!

 

where can you buy pattern part stuff from please ?

website.....?
