at idle, the heat dosent work. but when i drive it works fine. whats my issue?

 

Wow, expand on that. First, what car?

 

sorry its a type s 03. basicly if i sit at a red light or anywere were my car is at idle no heat comes out it blows cold, but as soon as i drive it heat comes out like it would normaly.

 

So it still blows hard just cold and not softly and warm? Does the car overheat or stay cooler than normal? I've never heard of this. Water pump?

I HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM ON MY 05 DC5!!!

 

don't you need to drive to get your heater/ac to work to its full potential

isn't that how it is in alot of cars

Usually thats how it is when you first turn ur car on when its cold out but once the car is warmed up heat blows out regulary and it shouldnt stop when you are at a light. My guess might be water pump too.

 

yo albert, idk if you got my im's, if you didnt, get a hold of me at m82socom@yahoo.com

 

car runs at a normal temp. so im not going crazy cuz other ppl are haveing this issue. idk? i think its possesed. but it blows cold at idle. not soft and warm

 

I have this in my 03 - S

If I am sitting there the heat is semi warm(55 degrees maybe?). Then I hit the gas and it gets super hot.

I thought thermostat, but then the car wouldn't heat up. My A/C doesn't do this.

 

I have seen this in a Taurus and in a 91 Civic. Water pump.
