  3. i have a corrado that has been bought as a little project its not on the road yet so am regularly going out and starting it up, the heater works fine but it has stopped blowing out of the windscreen, and is blowing all under the dash, i had it all out today (what a bugger) and where i think is the matrix joins onto the like channels it seems to have come apart but no explanation why because the car has hardly been used and was working before, can any one shed any light please, i also noticed that under the matrix in the floor is a vent which looks like it should have something over it but what,this could explain the excess condensation in the car.
