Is the heater cold sometimes? I ask because if it were me i'd bleed the cooling system to get rid of sir locks.
Might also be worth checking that there isn't any leaves or something blocking the radiator.
Regards, Richard.

The on/off scenario could be a clue. It can't get much hotter when its not running. I'd get the radiator checked and bleed it up.

However - the heat transfer into the cabin on a really hot day is starting to wear a little thin. I am also not too happy about cooking everything under the bonnet to death which can only lead to other problems.
Has anyone done anything to reduce under bonnet temperatures that has made a significant difference. Like I said the engine is not overheating while driving so I am not talking about fan mods, I am looking for other ideas/suggestions.
