YRV heater matrix

Forum: 

HI there,

Have got a 99 YRV 1.3 premium with no heat whatsoever from the heater. The garage had a look and ther eis virtually no water flow through the heater matrix. We've been told you can only get a new matrix from Japan (v costly), I thought this was odd so my question is is this true or does the YRV share the same heater matrix with other models? and thus be able to find a decent second hand one under another name!

cheers Smile
