v6 = justice

hello good evening and welcome!

im hoping its the flaps, but she blows air, just not hot air... is there a test or some visual cue to test your matrix? would the car run off-colour if the matrix was at fault?

how would you know if your matrix had gone. i dont mean it chucking water out into the car, but my heater doesnt work properly at the moment so i wanted to diagnose the problem. how could i tell if it was the matrix? she runs fine, just not a lot of heat, if any, out of heater system. is there a sur...

another contender for regional meet?! the world's first garden city and all that... maybe we could all drive round and round 'the world's first roundabout' until we're sick?

260000 miles is quite something. nice colour too btw

nice. ive seen this car before somewhere... did you buy it on fleabay?

bosch kit fitted to cav cdx around 94-95 before the dual keyfob/key in one unit was introduced. as it was only fitted for one year it can make it difficult to find replacement parts, but you can bypass the unit altogether as previously stated by other members

this might sound stupid but has the battery packed up? replacement battery is only a couple of quid. replacement keyfobs are available for about 100 quid each from vx if you're lucky. they can be reprogrammed to match your car. let me know if you're interested as i think i have a spare keyfob here a...
