Is it the diesel one? If so, is it the Hdi or XUD engine?

On the XU, there is a top bleed nipple just behind the intercooler on the drivers side if you didnt already find it.
Im at the same point with my runner, need to run a hose through the heater matrix and have another try at bleeding it.

its the diesel i found the bleed nipple and i gave it a good bleed and still the same any idea what else could it be

Not sure tbh ricky, do you have any water leaks?
Im starting to suspect mine is a blocked heater matrix, though the coolant is perfect, and was the same (no crap in it) when I dropped it all just before xmas

Will sling a hose on it and see if its got much flow

I heard they are supposed to be notorious for shit heaters though

The 406 does suffer from blocked and leaky heater matrix's. Touch wood though the heaters on my HDI executive are spot on.

I love the french. Give us a heater that heats the warm and chills the cold. It was bloody freezing today and all
