Anyone have information on the heater core TSB? Specifically the affected VINs. The information below is all i could find after hours of searching.
My 16.5 CX5 GT seems to be taking longer than it should to get the cabin warm. Takes about 20 minutes of mixed driving when Temps are below 20F. I dont have any codes. My 16 Mazda3 takes about half that.
I removed the glove box and some of the interior trim to access the inlet and outlet tubes don the heater core. After a 25 mile drive(half at highway speeds), the outlet tube was cooler. Hot, but I could keep my finger on it for more than a second, unlike the intlet tube. I would expect some different since its essentially a radiator with a fan cooling it. Just purchased an infrared thermometer that should be arriving this afternoon. Ill take some readings to know how big of a difference in temp there is.
