Andy,
Mine has the opposite effect, it blows hot all the time unless you set the temp to the lowest and then it blows too cold. There's nothing in between, I think there's a sensor somewhere that's knackered.
O.M.

Sounds like a low coolant problem as the heater is the highest point in the system... so it is full of air most of the time and then gets some water through and hence heats up...
