I see this is quite a common problem after searching for heater on here
and all threads lead to those stupid valve things
but my pipes are hot either side of the stupid valve things? ???

come on chap's don't tell me the only way to make this golf warm involves petrol and a match? :D

Oh and I swapped those stupid valve things from our old golf which had a decent heater and it made no differnce  ???
