Hi All, my 7 has a standard cabin heat setup. pick up at the lower right baffle ramp, routed directly to one Vans standard heat muff and from there to the valve at the firewall.
from the beginning my cabin heat was inadequate. it goes from "cold" to "not that much cold anymore". so i tried everything... sealed all kind of gaps in the cabin (canpoy skirt, side rails, openings around seat belts, stick etc.), sealed the heater bypass valve, improved the heat muff with enlarged internal area. but no real success. i am running out of options.
what i noticed is that (if turning on cabin heat) i can feel with my bare hand that it gets somewhat warmer around my lower legs. but i don't feel a real airstream. maybe that is my problem...?
so a question to the 7-drivers with a similar setup... do you really feel a stream of incoming warm air? like a small fan would produce? it's sure hard to quantify but maybe too little airflow is my problem.
would be greatful for any input.
