pussa Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Hi to you all, I'm a new member of the group also a new defender owner, had a few range rovers over the years, but the 90 is a new ball game. I live in north yorkshire in the dales, last night it was -14c bloody cold... my question is how can I improve the heater, at the moment I've got the rad blanked off, thinking about removing the fan if we have a snow free day.Can any of you point me in the right direction to improve the heating. Thanks,Russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 check the operating cable/air flp settings are correct, look in the tech archive index for 'defender heater checks' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks,Russ How warm is your engine getting? Might be worth changing your 'stat, or at least checking it's working correctly. Other than that, do as Ralph suggests and make sure your heater flaps are correctly setup. Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
