Hi

This is usually caused by a partially blocked heater matrix (the one between the driver and passenger's feet). A coolant flush and refill may clear it but more often than not, you may need to replace the heater matrix.

You have plenty of room in the engine bay to remove the feed and return hoses from the heater matrix, put one end in a bucket and flush through with a hose pipe a few times, this will clear out some of the crud!

Refill using the correct procedure and you should hopefully have a warmer heater.
