Do the hoses that go to the heater matrix from the engine bay have to go on a certain way if so what way is it :confused: One pipe comes from the inlet does this go on the left or the right looking in bay from the front

Exit from the head to one, other goes to the plastic water pipe.

That way you get the hottest water.

Theres a big plastic pipe that runs round the back of the block mate theres two pipes coming off just under the inlet towards the gearbox they go on there the left matrix hose to the left one and the right to the right one if you get what i mean.

Better to pipe the exit from the head (under the dizzy/coilpack) to the matrix as that carries the hottest water.
