Have you changed the coolant recently?
I done mine today and had trouble bleeding the system, Once I had done it properly they were nice and hot.

yes i changed it 2 weeks ago when i put my m30 in.... i'm pretty sure its bled ok, i'm using the header tank that sits higher than the engine.... i was wondering if there was any common electrical probs with them? i dont know if the car had heating before i got it as i never tested it...

Did you put the pipes on to the heater matrix round the right way?
I think the flow goes in through the bottom hose and out through the top, But I am not 100% on that.
