    How can i stop the cold air from still coming in the dash vents when closed:confused:
     
  2. Take the vents out and put bottles in them - keeps you warm in the cold and cools the drinks in summer - you need some liquid in them though or they pop out.

    what about the windscreen slots:)
     
  4. Have you had a look under the front grille? Check the operation of the flaps - I believe they are meant to have some kind of foam seal. I say 'I believe' as mine appear to have been welded shut by a PO :rolleyes:

  6. I agree with what popester says, have a look under the grill. It's it's shut air tight- no air

    Look under the dash and work the lever - see the rods disappearing though the front panel? Lever up to, then pull them. This cured the last bit of draught in mine. Some of the cold air rods are adjustable, some can slot in different holes on the lever to change the rod length. Mind your back.

  18. Take your front grille off and check whether the seals are still there. then as Zed says, adjust the blue lever linkage under the dash to make sure they shut.
