| heater matrix removal - dash out? |
|
So, it's happened, heat on driver's side, no heat on passenger...I've flushed the matrix which did not fix it (tbh, not much crud came out even after using limescale remover etc) and now I need to replace it.
Having a 2010 LR4 i'm not sure if there are any differences with the LR3, but I cannot see how the matrix will come out unless all the plastic centre console trim is removed...has anyone done this? or am I looking at a complete dash removal (please God, no!). Internet pictures show someone taking it out with a slight mod of the panels underneath, but that was not a LR4 (RRS I think( and it's not the same...any advice greatly appreciated.
TIA.

Investigate as per RRS.
Should come out like that, as long as the pipes are joined down there.

I don't suppose you have a 'how to' guide when it comes to taking everything apart?
I am guessing that the entire centre console must be removed, along with all the radio/control panel units in the centre dash?
I am hoping that the steering wheel and console can stay in place, or do you really mean the whole dash has to come out?
I've watched a video online where they remove the entire dash 'live' but I get the feeling I don't need to go to those lengths just to slide the matrix out from underneath (I could be wrong!).

Console usually has to come out, so the dash can move.
I even had to do it to change the glovebox!

I thought the glove box was held in place with 2 hinge pins that you can remove with a little home made tool to 'squish' the end tabs so you can pop the pins through?
