anyone any ideas, if I drive my 300 tdi at 60 it's ok but has no heater, if I drive it at 70 it cooks but cools down really quick if I slow back to 60, it has no heater at all which is an arse when you need the screen cleared, had a new water pump but screeches like a mouse in acats mouth. Help

are you sure its the water pump squeeling not the belt tensioner ?
have you got a airlock in the heater matrix ?

Could it be a sticking thermostat that you have causing the air lock and forvthe squeeling belt try spraying a little baby powder on to the belt that works a treat stops belts squeel
