#1: it doesn't get hot..... Author: mjsroofing, Location: south walesPosted: Mon Dec 27, 2010 12:32 am ---- got the 1.4 hdi 03 plate and it just doesnt get hot, it runs at around 70-75 degress which only gives you warm air inside the car, not just cause of the snow either, its been the same every day since we've had it, is this normal and is there a mod for this so we can have hot heaters.

The heaters never gets as toasty hot as petrol engine do.
