I thought heater cores were always flowing, only the flap moves to re-route the air.
>>16743861
i guess not if they clog somehow.
>>16743805
So?
>>16743861
Some have heater control valves that stop coolant flow through the core in addition to the temperature blend doors.

The car will take forever to warm up if you're blowing all the hot air towards you. Just like radiator fans.

Does blowing the heater actually help bleed off heat more when you go full dorifto or is that a myth?

>>16744164
it helps quite a bit. a few years ago i blew a radiator hose and my car started overheating fast, so i turned my heat on full blast and i was able to drive it far enough before it got too hot
>>16744164
full on truth, my 4runner had a nasty habbit of overheating at idle or in stop in go traffic before i put the radiater fan on a toggle switch. with the hear on blast the coolant temp would always drop
>>16744164
its literally a tiny radiator in your cab, fan and all

Every morning I basically drive off into a steep hill which I take with high revs in 1st gear.
The defroster stealing some heat off the engine is the least of my worries.

That genuinely sucks, dude.
>>16744103
My wife will turn the ACC temp up thinking it will get warmer quicker.
>>16744164
Technically yes, the heater core is a point where waste heat from the engine is vented, so it can function like a radiator
>>16743805
Hot ass day
Turn on heater
Piss off passengers

Our company car had a faulty thermostat and would overheat, so what we did is put the heater on full blast and open up the windows. This was in summertime, quite a shitty experience I might add, but it worked.

Heated passenger seats are a lot of fun in summer.

Yeah, its fucking great. It uses 0,25 liter of fuel every time i use it, but the engine uses less fuel as it doesn´t have to heat itself.
I don´t have to wait for the windows to clear either.

Do you have to wait for the engine to reach its operating temperature before you turn the heating on, even when you have VW Climatronic?
I don't know much about my own car...
>>16746320
You can turn it on, but the air won't be hot because the coolant is icy chill.

VW guy again, does the engine have to be warm before the AC can be turned on?
>>16746390
Well the cooling AC can pretty much work straight off the bat if the engine's turning the compressor.
