Heat has me Puzzled ????

J.E.D. · 01-20-2013, 08:40 AM

Had a decent supply of heat but wasnt as hot as it had been . So I changed the Antifreeze (Honda Antifreeze) and now I have heat on passenger side vent but no heat on driver side and if you close the vent of passenger side it gets warmer on driver side? Any ideas ?

First.. Does the car's engine warm up as normal? If not change the thermostat.
If it does warm up normal but your not getting warm air try changing the cabin air filter. There are two. You take out one then slide the second over and take it out.

At this point, If it were mine, I would take it to the Honda dealer and ask for a diagnosis. Sorry.
