Описание: In this video I show how to remove and replace the heater matrix (heater core) on a Mini Cooper R50 2001.
If your cabin is not getting hot air, it’s often caused by a blocked or leaking heater matrix. I demonstrate the full process for removing the old unit and fitting a new one.

Symptoms of a failing heater matrix
