Hi everyone OK this is my problem I got a 2003 S-Type R my front left and right and the rear back vents is blowing hot air when I turn on the A/C and the front middle vent is a lil cold but not as cold as it should be. So I took it to a shop after it got the A/C recharge it was doing the same thing so I took it to another shop that work''s on Jags they put it on the machine and told me it was the heater valve and auxiliary water pump so I got those change and it still does the same thing. PLEASE HELP me if you had the same problem know what it is Thanks

Have you gotten to the bottom of this? I have the same s-type and same problem. Had the heater control valve replaced and still blowing hot mixed with a/c. A/C recharged already and the dealer is clueless and wants to keep throwing parts at it at significant cost. HELP. I live in Phoenix and no a/c is serious business when it is 110+.
