Heater goes cold when car stops
Anyone else have this problem? Heater works perfectly fine, but then at a stoplight, it starts blowing cool air. It's my wife's car, so I don't drive it everyday, but I know it didn't used to do it.

Nope. No work done at all. I'll check the level, but I wouldn't think any impact on the heater should be felt at coolant levels that are sufficient enough to keep the coolant indicator light from coming on. Although, I do occasionally hear coolant "swooshing" when I first accelerate from a stop. Anything else?

OK...seems like airpocket is the consensus. Is there a method for "burping" the coolant system, or just add coolant?
Alty - you had the same problem?
