Hi Folks,
I hope you are all well.
As everyone from the uk will know, we are having a very early winter here. -10 tonight and set for -20!
I dont often drive slow but i am afraid this weather sees you driving around 30mph in some cases. My car once hot, sits around the 4 lines on the temp gauge. This weather has seen it sit around 8 and on many runs it never reaches it normal temp.
Now i know on very cold mornings they can take a while to heat up but this is ridiculous and i dont care how cold it is outside i should have a really hot heater.
I had a new water pump fitted around a month ago and the heater has been working great up until this really cold spell.
Anyone have any experience of this? I may try and bleed the system. I have checked coolant level and its ok. Maybe it needs a thermostat.
Any feedback appreciated. Thank God i have heated seats!
Cheers
