Hey everyone;
I had tried to repair my blower fan last week and found out that it was beyond me; I couldn't get it out and then I found out that the heater core was leaking too so I just took it to my local VW Shop and had them replace the fan with a new one and also replace the heater core.
However, now the car seems to have NO heat!! The fan only has 2 speeds (it's supposed to have 3) and the car barely gets above freezing inside even when the engine is at full operating temp.
I have to take the car back there next week to get the new fan replaced (we think it's defective what with missing a speed and all :roll: ), but I don't get why it's so cold with the new heater core. Do I need that replaced as well? How could I get 2 faulty brand new units at once!?!? :shock:
Anyway, the old fan was POS but at least I had heat when I drove fast
. This was also a very expensive job so I want it to be RIGHT!
Any ideas why there doesn't appear to be heat!??!
Thanks!
No worries; I fixed it myself
(Some things were not hooked up properly :oops: ).
Too bad I couldn't do the WHOLE job myself; would have saved me a buncha $$ :?
oh well, at least now I have heat
.
Well, although I have heat; it doesn't seem hot enough. Any ideas? Does the thermostat do anything to affect in-car heat? I am dense about these things; please help
.
It was -10'c today and I was chilly in there
.
(It almost felt like I was back in my 74 Bug again!
).
Anyway, any ideas are appreciated!
