Default No hot air...

Hi Guys n Gals....

Been having a few problems with the car heater...

On full heat with the engine at temp the heater still only pushes out luke warm air , just won't get hot at all.

Cold air is fine.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

More than likely an air lock in the system has it been drained/refilled lately?

Ummm had a basic checkup service done last Friday but think that it was there before then (only had it 2 weeks)

Is there an easy way for me to check?

Check the coolant level. If low you will not get much heat.

Air lock or Thermostat.

Do a search and you will find how to check/sort both these things.
