isobarboy 25 Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 First off..... I hate heater matrixs, Secondly..... I hate air con moreAnd thirdly.... I hate vw for making what should be a simple thing, a near on impossible task that can make me see red.Why would they design a vehicle so badly underneath that to change a heater matrix on an air con model literally means removing your whole air con system, knee bars the lot. I am giving it to a garage to do the rest before I koose it with it. Right now I hate my vr6.Cant wait to spend another £200 in labour charges VR6Pete and D11PS 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Bealieboy 1,625 Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Yep, I hear that! I've spent a fair bit labour wise on mine. I work on the theory it's better to pay someone to get fucked off with my car, my top blows when a piece of plastic/metal/glass won't do what I'm carefully and methodically trying and do with it, wether on my car, round the house or at work. I'm a really placid bloke too, but inanimate objects make my blood boil when they don't behave!!!!!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk isobarboy and Nex 2 Link to post Share on other sites

ssaunders 199 Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hi, when you get it fitted make sure they reconnect the vacuum pipe, its for recirc or something and you need to remove from old one and fit to the new one. i only found this out after mine was done and i 'found' a vacuum pipe!it should be under the pipes going into the firewall.good lucksteve VR6Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites
