Help me again you wonderful people

Have you run the van with the rad cap off for a bit (make sure the heater control is set to warm obviously)? That can get rid of airlocks in the matrix sometimes.

Have you checked for a throughflow between input n output on matrix (hosepipe connected to input, nowt connected to output.
If its competeley cacked up, nowt will come out so bleeding wont be possible till youve cleared it.

Also try by-passing the heater control valve: thermostatically controlled type (capillary tube attached that disappears into heater) can jam shut.

If heater is clear then disconnect uppermost hose from heater & attach another hose so that a funnel can be wedged into it & held above the heater box. Fill heater via funnel until coolant comes from detached hose then reconnect.
