hiya, ive just got a 1996 a3 1.6s with a bit of a heat problem...
firstly, the engine will over-heat after shortish journeys in traffic. i have seen the fan come on but only for about 30seconds and it wasnt going very fast :mellow: . also after switching off the engine the fan dosnt come on to cool it down.
it isnt loosing water, so could it be a fan switch or motor thats faulty?
Secondly, the heater only blows out cold air... maybe a blockage?
if anyone has had any of these problems or has any more ideas of what it might be, please let me know so hopefully i can get it sorted!
