vvtirob Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Hey folks. Got the new rad in and trying to get everything back to normal... Engine temp is staying at normal and doesnt appear to be overheating, however - blowers are still blowing cold hair even when turned up to hot... Climate control? Errm, not sure what to do next :/ Cold air, not hair - hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cravo Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Sounds like an airlock Mate. Check the guide I made fella about bleeding the system on the common issues thread. Tells you how to get rid of air locks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlasumm Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 silly question i know but did you have the heater on full when filling it because if not this will cause a air lock in the heater matrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
