Heater Problems

[IanJames75]

Hi All,

I have a 2003 t3-s 1.8vvti it is currently on 98k and i have a problem. my heaters work and get very hot so much so i cannot keep my hand in the airflow for long when they are flat out. BUT when i go round corners i get a BIG WOOSH of COLD AIR from somewhere which then dissapears when i straigten up.

I have had a new engine bottom end fitted under warranty a few months ago due to excessive oil consumption, a new steering colum fitted at the same time as this was a recall by toyota. I have NO IDEA about where this cold air is coming from and really havent noticed it until this spell of cold weather...

Please can anyone help

Thanks

Does the heater continue to blow hot when cornering? or does it go cold? Does it only happen when the heater fans are on or does it do it all the time?

You need to pinpoint whether it is coming through the heater system or from elsewhere.

Thanks, It feels like its coming from somewhere else but i have not checked if it is worse when heaters on or not but will check, i think it is all the time
