Check the coolant level quick!
Sounds like an air lock, does the fan keep coming on and off? It shouldn't.
If it is re-fill it at the header tank, not the water lid on the right of the radiator.

Could just be the heater control unit. Part of it controls a motor which opens and closes a flap in the cabin to let in hot air.
Poke your head under the passenger foot well near the centre console and see if the flap is opening and closing when the heater **** is turned from cold to hot.

With a cold engine take the header tank cap off, turn the heater onto max heat, max fan. run the engine while slowly filling the header tank. When it won't take any more give the lower radiator hose a squeeze to make sure there is no air left. When no more fluid will go in put the cap back. Give it a while switched off (half hour - an hour) and have another go.
Also worth checking for leaks, the coolant had to go from somewhere. I had a crack in the metal elbow pipe just above the engine number, right PITA to get to.
