Hi all hope someone can help. The last couple of days my heaters have been taking a long time to heat up on a 03 sti any suggestions.

Thanks

 

Check the coolant level in the tank. Failing that you could have a bit of a blockage. Is the car overheating at all when giving it some beans?

 

its not overheating on gauges but smells a bit like hot burning through vents

 

Check coolant asap.

Could be headgasket failure........

 

It could be your heater matrix that is leaking,the smell is prob be the antifreeze ,check to see if your carpet is wet on the pas side that's where they allways leak from mate, if it is leaking don't bother with stuff like rad weld mate it not work
