OK so first off I'm fairly sure I know I shouldn't have used radweld so please no need to tell me I shouldn't have done this etc etc. I'm simply amazed they are still aloud to sell that garbage.
Anyway so I had a small leak thought some Radweld was an easy fix. Put it in yesterday drove on the engine for 20 mins or so and all seemed fine. Been out today and no heating, not on electric not when the ice was running. Turned the heating up to high and it says the heater isn't on most of the time then it will come on for a few seconds before going back off again.
Fairly sure the radweld had clogged up my heater so few questions:
I usually drive on 95% electric with the heating off, am I OK leaving it as is for now? Not going anywhere much at the moment as working from home due to lock down or do I need to get the coolant changed ASAP?
If the coolant needs changing is it an easy job?
If the heater core needs replacing where is it and can it be changed without too much bother?
Once again I realise I've not done the right thing please don't reply just to tell me I'm an idiot I know I am. Your help is appreciated
