Hi Guys, Im new here and also new to BMW's. I have a 1997 316 I SE, and i am loving it, even though it needs some tlc. I am having a problem at the mo with the heating. It has the digital environmental controls, and these all seem to work. With the fans cranked up to maximum and the temperature set at 32 degrees, the car remains luke warm.. I can hear the fan blowing, the tone changes when I change the direction (screen, dash blowers, feet, etc., but about a knats !Removed! of air actually blows into the cabin. I have checked the water in the radiator is all good and topped up. The engine runs normally and gets to normal operating temperature, although sometimes it does seem to take a while to heat up! I can't see any problems with disconnected hoses or anything under the bonnet. One other odd thing is that the fans seem loader when standing next to the car outside, than when you are sitting in the car - but this could be normal? Any ideas on what I should look for? Cheers, Psinic.
