ChrisJ Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 My G car was like this - no air con, and was a luke warm dribble. I think it was an air bubble I think. After draining a couple of times it became (and still is) hot. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike6 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Try opening the vent on the radiator when engine warm and heater on. Access through the front passenger wheel arch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisJ Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Hi Kirk I don't have air con on my car, I ran with a luke warm dribble for a year after recommissioning the car in 2012, and it was one of the things that was fixed on the first years service. I didn't drain it myself, but this description came from GST in Newmarket. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dash level vents only blow "cold" air. If you have the knob turned to interior then only these vents blow, and they won't blow hot air. If you have the heat on, and the knob is to defrost, then the defrost vents at the windshield are where the heat comes out. If you have heat selected and the knob about half way between defrost and interior, then some heat will come out on your feet as well... That's just how the system works.
