Worst case - leaky matrix. Hope not for the sake of your wallet. Keep an eye out for soggy carpets...
Bloody hell I am a pessimist =)

I too have a leaky heater matrix, Im planning on putting K Seal in to sub due the leak for now until i can change the matrix. How difficult is it to change the heater matrix? I've done it on a golf Gti before and then was a mission hoping this should be easier.

I too have a problem with the heating in my GTI180, ive checked all fuses and checked the fan under the dash. Today i had a mechanic test the fan, he said there was no power going to it, its possible it could be a relay. Does anyone know if this might be the case or would it be a similar issue and the heater matrix is screwed???
