I’ve just bought an Altea XL (2008 2.0 tdi).
within a day, it needed a radiator & water pump. I later discovered that the heating wasn’t working and the garage diagnosed a blocked heater matrix that wouldn’t flush through.
They reckon it’s been blocked due to the probable use of radiator sealant and has to be replaced at a cost of around £800as the whole dash has to come out.
does anybody know if this is a good price? Can it be done without removing the dash’s d if it can, is there a guide available anywhere?
many thanks in advance.
