I have an Octavia Estate 2004 where the heat inside the car does not work. Nothing happens when I turn the heating knob. Have changed the thermostat in a workshop and it did not get any better. I was advised to change the heating package (Very expensive) or buy a car with working heat (Even more expensive) ...... Or try to "change the heating valve" Manually, with my fingers ....
I understand that it is in this valve the fault lies because there is hot air when I drive at low speed and it is down to approx. 3-5 degrees outside.
Does anyone know how to access this valve and adjust?
Grateful for any help. I need to warm up now that winter is approaching.
