Hello Fellow Pug owners!
I'm new here so please bear with me.
I have recently bought 206 Gti 180 at (what I thought) a bargain price.
Driving home I've discovered there's no heating (yes it does have digital climate control) - all the controls seem to be working fine - fan speed, temperature control, climate control, variable fan speed when changing the temperature on "auto".
So far, this is where I got to:
- I've changed the heater matrix
- Blower works fine on all speeds
- I've bled the coolant system (about 8127 times, just in case)
I've also had the car checked out by a local garage - so it's nothing obvious or super bad (like head gasket).
Things I've not yet looked at:
heater motor actuator - where is it located? How to get to it?
Heater resistor? - I'm not sure what it does exactly
What else can I look at myself before giving it away to a specialist (Cheaper I've found so far is £45 for first 30 minutes, already telling me that based on above description he'd have to strip the whole dashboard [i.e. EXPENSIVE])
Please let me know if anyone had similar problems, or shout any advice you may have!
Thanks!

You can feel the pipe going into the heater matrix is hot?

The pipes in the engine bay going into the car are getting hot - but the plastic pipes inside going into the heater matrix are cold as ice!
