No heat at idle
I didn't notice this last winter....
With the engine at operating temp I do not get warm air from any setting or blend UNLESS the car is rolling.
RPM does not seem to affect it. Road speed - even 5 MPH - seems to be the only thing that allows me to get heated air to come from the vents.
I did some searches but could not find anything to shed light on this strange new symptom.
I have some time left on my warranty, but the dealer is 100+ miles away. Any advice?

I can’t jack the car would burping still work?
#15
Yes, it will. Jacking it up helps get all the air bubbles out of the system, but you should get most of it out if you can’t
