just got the car back from the garage , then straight to the auto electrian £300 pounds down and still no heating in the car!
they repaired the heating solniod, vac pipes, then tell me to take it back to the garage to flush the matrix,
can someone tell me exactly where the pipes are to flush the matrix and i'll try it myself first.
getting bored throwing money away.
all a want is the heater to work.
