air flow on full hot is not as high since air's having to blow through
the heater matrix. if the air's not getting hot enough, check your
coolant level [inside the radiator, not the expansion bottle] and make
sure the coolant flow valve is operating properly.



The air is hot enough, its the air flow which reduces, when directed through
the matrix I guess suggesting the matrix is blocked or something similar.
The fan noise rises significantly suggesting that something is blocked too.
How much of the dashboard do I have to dismantle to get to check this out?
