I made another thread on here a few months ago as I had lost some heating on the drivers side and then eventually I was losing coolant a few times probably when the dpf was doing a regen and was backing things up.
Anyway I have bought a new heater core and my mechanic friend fitted it via the workaround (glovebox) and has completely flushed the coolant a few times which took him a couple of hours. I picked the car up yesterday and the heating was nice and hot. Anyway ive driven it on the motorway today, put the heating on and the drivers side is luke warm again. Im so gutted.
What is going on??? He previously did a pressure test and checked the water pump
Im losing all confidence in the leon because I know this has had problems with the heating core and the silicone bag but we have just replaced the heating core for a brand new one.
Im frightened now that it will only be a matter of time before I get more coolant loss. Ive already spent money on trying to get this fixed.
Any advise he can try?!!
