306 D Turbo - gurj306 - 05-12-2012
hi guys and girls
so my bro just brought a N reg d turbo phase1 but the heater inside the car doesnt work, temp guage stays on 0 and doesnt move so no heating in the car at all 
does have a few other minor issues like windows dont work, rev counter and the central locking but main thing is heating in this lovely british winter 
anyone got any clues about the heating mainly?would be much appreciated as want to sort it out over saturday
he's got a bosch pump and i dont
EPIC FAIL!!! feels much quicker then mine but as said heaters!!! any info would be greattttt thanks guys

is it no heat or no blowers?

Do they blow? If not either motor or control panel. First thing I'd try your working control panel.

Are the heater matrix pipes getting warm/hot?

both really...even when car is running there is no heat coming from the heaters whilst your driving and blower not turning on at all

tried moving the cable itself from the blower but nothing
was told to try putting a 12v power 2 blower 2 c if it still runs?
RE: 306 D Turbo - Piggy - 06-12-2012
Get the blower to work be a big help...
But it concerns me that the temp gauge says 0!!
RE: 306 D Turbo - Matt - 06-12-2012
If no heat atall then it's the matrix gone, if not blow (inb4samass) then it will probably be the blower motor
RE: 306 D Turbo - r3k1355 - 06-12-2012
or the headgasket's gone pop and is pressurising the coolant causing an airlock.
My phase 1 had the same problem last winter - awesome fun!

Yea what matt said he must be a pro now he owns one after shagging the rallye

Thermostat been removed?
RE: 306 D Turbo - vincent1 - 06-12-2012
as above with the temp gauge not reading either try putting a new thermostat in and bleeding the coolant system.
RE: 306 D Turbo - Dum-Dum - 06-12-2012
That or check the sensor is plugged in and working for the gauge cos in this weather even with no stat they will heat up eventually.
Think its about 40-50 you see it start moving and so if you know the car has warmed up (feel the matrix hoses) then the sensor is fooked.
I reckon if the matrix pipes are getting hot then sort the blower however I do think there is strong potential for a f*cked head gasket though

When its warm try squeezing the top rad hose see if its solid, my pal had a 1.9 swapped his diesel laguna for it they didnt even bother checking the laguna, he came to show me and asked why its idling rough and chucking out little puffs of white smoke went n saw him the next day i undone the top pipe and there was no thermostat he was screwing when i told him hg failiure :p
RE: 306 D Turbo - gurj306 - 08-12-2012
The temp gauge seems to be moving but when driving it goes back downbelow 70 surely if the hg is failing it would pressure the rad? And wouldn't boost? There is no pressurising in the rad but seems to boost fine, when at stand still the temp seems to rise
Just checked the water pipe seems hot and the matrix pipes seem warm aswell the rad pipe seems soft loads of water on the passengers floor I susspect matrix
Oooo another update the water pump is leakin like a beeeech
306 D Turbo - kentiiboii - 08-12-2012
My temp guage never goes over 70? But I've took rad cap off and the water isn't dead hot. So what's that?
RE: 306 D Turbo - 306Dan - 08-12-2012
dodgy sensor, outa spec resistance
RE: 306 D Turbo - r3k1355 - 09-12-2012
or the thermostat has been removed by someone.
Mine does the same, but give it a bootfull and it quickly rises.
I also heats up abit quicker, so it's staying unchanged over the winter.
RE: 306 D Turbo - gurj306 - 09-08-2016
Haven't posted on here in ages and thank you for all the info in the end my bro did not keep the car anyway and I just wanted to say once again thank you
