Ours did that just before the head gasket blew- it was air circulating/locked in the heater matrix that meant no coolant was circulating to heat the air. Check the coolant system is bled properly. |

Tims 7 series guide to bleeding in meeknet- maybe a google to find it- is really good. |

An airlock would not be registered as a fault, if you have an airlock you will know about it soon enough as the pressure the system works at will soon get it out the system via the overflow cap release valve...

Nice! Keep an eye on the coolant level - I'm replacing all of my pipes tomorrow- they're all old n' leaky |

Dan at Duckworth (site sponsor on here) usually has the best price for the IID tool.
