How do i fix my heating? It operates but without much heat. Even after 20 minutes there is very little heat coming out of the vents inside the car. I've flushed out the pipes and replaced the Thermostat but still no change. I'm aware that these cars are prone to these faults eventually and it is an older car but is there a way to fix this? Can anyone help?

Is the engine heating up properly, what temp is showing on the gauge?
Have you bled the air out of the cooling system properly? You have not given any detail on the year/mark/engine, but on mine there was a bleed screw on the heater control valve in the engine bay.
Did you disconnect the hoses to the heater matrix and flush it separately?
