so ever since i had my polo nearly 2 years ago its never had any heating, ive wundered whats actually wrong with it.

ive read the manual but nothing really gives me an idea on a fault.

ive had several diagnostics tests done since i have had it but nothing has ever come up with an electrical problem, so imnot too sure what to do tbh

itsgetting too cold now and im even having to deice the inside of my car now
so wundering does anybody know what i can do?


ive been told my heater matrix may have gone but i dont want to go with the 1st answer i get!!

thanks.

Its likely to be your heater matrix. If the car engine temp is staying stable then the water pump will be ok, so all it can be is the matrix.
