I have heat, but if I turn the fan up to higher speeds it gets cooler. If I'm driving around town and stopping frequently, it gets cooler. If I leave the fan on the lowest setting, and drive at a decent speed or rpm it is fairly warm, but it is not as hot as it should be.
It seems the blend door is working, because when it is blowing warm, I can back the temp control back little by little and feel a difference. The coolant level is where it should be (no leaks), and the temp gauge reads as it should. Both hoses going into the heater core feel warm/hot. The heater control valve was replaced last winter (early this year).
I recently installed a body lift, but I don't see how that would cause the problem, though I didn't check the heat before the lift, so I'm not sure...
Anyone have any suggestions?
