Just purchased a beaut of a mk2 polo bready. Few niggly bits like dodgy paint where it was attempted to be "rat" the rad popped and the fuel tank seemed solid until i got it home then it curse word 20 quid on the floor. ANNNNY WHOOO. those problems are resolved, but the one problem i cant figure out is the heaters don't get hot. No idea why. Bled the rad. Anything else?

Heater controls broken, matrix blocked / bypassed due to leak, thermostat stuck open? Does the engine get up to temp?

No. It doesnt go up at all but a external fan switch had been added! Matrix doesnt seem blocked. Thermostat! Didnt think of that little beast

you only get heat to windscreen or feet. the vents on the sides are fresh air only. there is a guid to modding the air control box so they put out warm air

Turning those two vents off diverts all the air to the screen or floors, depending what you set it to (when to floor it goes through the centre console and out under the front seats). Then it gets toasty in no time.

Then it gets toasty in no time. Its funny because its taken me since last thursday to just realise this. I'm such a noob |
