Hi guys,
so here is the story: my car mini has been consuming water a lot those days and it got me really worried. a blown head gasket is never fun. but the thing is: it was using a lot of water even for head gasket and I had no blue/white smoke at the exhaust, appart from the normal start-up smoke that you get while starting your car when it is -10°C out there (I live in the mountains)
but turns out that it's my heater that has been leaky: I noticed for instance that after a while with heater on and turning on the demister fan, I actual got mist through the demister vents. I mean, like smoky mist, almost fog.
now I realized that if I pass a rag along the edge of my heater unit, I got water. so my guess is this is where water is going.
it must be a tiny leak, but it's there.
So I think it's time either to replace the heater matrix. or to go for a low footprint heater. I was considering T7 Design for that. they seem to have decent products and I know some of you guys had it. so I was wondering, what's your take on the K7 Design unit ?
and are there any other units that you may recommand ?
cheers !
Ben.
