xe no heat ???

try swapping the coolant temp sender on like 3 quid because the engine will obviously be getting hot, but the blue wire on the xe gets corroded easily and gives crap reading, i have had to replace about half a meter up the loom they have been so bad!, as for the matrix. sounds blocked with something, get a hose and take the pipes that go on to the engine and jam a hose in there and turn on the hose and flush it both directions. make sure you see no white gunk anywhere as its may be oil clogging it up. a
