Temp Gauge reading?
temp reading perfect
My 1.8 is the same since I changed the thermostat last week. I suspect the heater matrix may be blocked, I did think there might be air in there but they're supposed to be self bleeding systems.
There was a post recently about checking the pipes going to the matrix when the engine is hot, both pipes should be hot if one's cold its got air in or a blockage.
hi chrisbilly just checked the pipes leading to matrix one is hot one is cold what do you think thanks.
I think you have air in the matrix.
So the cold one when up to engine temp remove this pipe a wee bit so air can escape and nice hot water may come out, then push back on.
If not you may have a partial blocked matrix which means a back flush both pipes off & shove water hose up it and the crud comes out the other & it's messy.![]()
bleed then back flush. I checked mine last night and both were warm which has stumped my plans for heat!
