Water behing the dash sound?

[IwantMKIII]

If you're gonna correct my terminology could you also answer my question, what purpose does the heater control valve serve? Doesn't it restrict flow to the heater core when the temp is turned down on the climate control so as not to have hot air emanating from your dash?

exactly, so what other time when using the climate control would this be helpful? Hint: think of the buttons that are actually there :icon_bigg


Also, the valve itself isn't really variable, its on/off from how i understand it. The variation in temps is a combination of hot air and ambient air from outside or inside depending on selection.

Correct,that is ,once again,why I said to make sure temp is up on the climate control,or that the "heat" be on if you will.If the HCV is in the open position then,logically, the heater core would be less likely to have air trapped in it.

Figured mine out, My upper rad hose has a small split in it, must have opened up last night enough to blow coolant over everything because the car was steaming pretty good haha.
