Gentlemen,
I have a 1993 325i with rebuilt M50 engine. Approx 550 miles on a automatic trans.
Engine is running on correct temp but no heat is coming through. Rad was just replaced four months ago. Tried bleeding the rad.
Need heat now since I am in Vancouver Canada. Getting a little chilly let alone windshield fogging up.
Thanking you in advance and will wait patiently for your reply.

are the heater core hoses both hot on the way into and out of the firewall if so check the blend door.

if one or none is hot then you need to bleed the coolant system again, if that does not remedy flush out the heater core.

The heater control valve throttles the coolant into the heater core. if it has failed or is blocked, you will not get any heat in the car. If more assistance is required please send a Private Message and I will help you out.
