The valve to control that is on the engine side of the firewall, I'd suspect that's perhaps sticking?

You should be sweating your cobs off with it set on 32!!!

19 degrees is the perfect temperature

Used to have it on that constantly in the audi, my 6th gen Accord and my Prelude. Just the right temperature for a t-shirt. I had to be fekking cold/wet/nagged by my mrs to turn it up!

Now that the daily just has a slider, it's always all the way on cold because I can't stand it not being all the way to one end, and the red end is boiling!

Yeah you should be losing weight through sweat at the temp.

Even with my poverty-spec slider heater just having it slid to hot without the fans on is enough to have me in a t shirt at this time of year.

If the engine is getting up to temp quickly, then it's either the mixer isn't working properly, or the matrix is sludged or scaled up.

So is the mixer inside under dash or is it in engine bay?
