Default 1st post. not a good one though:(

Hiya everyone

my bf has a subaru impreza wrx 53 plate and hes having issues with it so being the loving gf I am I thought I would try hekp him

The car has been garaged for a year and since he put it bsck on the road he has had an issue. The temperature gauage barely moves it stays just below minimum mark and he checked the thermostat and its definitely opening and closing and he is also getting hot and cold air through the heaters.

any of you lovely people out there know what it could be?

Thanks
Aimee

First thing to try is bleeding the system as they are known for air locks one of the symptoms of which is not blowing hot air.
