Hi all. New here after acquiring a Relay van (2014) camper conversion. I've a problem with thermostat (takes forever to warm up and poor mpg) I've had a look online but struggling to find any decent video/link. Wondering if anyone can advise before I commit to buying the workshop manual....though it's probably a good idea anyway?

I have a 2013 C3 Picasso Exclusive with the 1.6VTi 120 engine and EGS6 gearbox. Recently, I've noticed the cabin heating is....pathetic..... with lukewarm air coming from the vents with the knob set to "Hi" , the blue engine temperature warning lamp takes about 8 times as far to go out as it used to (12miles as opposed to 1.5) and the Mpg figure has dropped from a lousy 43mpg to a catastrophic 38mpg. I believe the engine is not getting to the correct temperature and the engine is running rich as a result, the cabin heater isn't being fed with water hot enough. This suggests a problem with the thermostat. I've had the car back to Quest Motors at Maldon, twice, but they've reported NFF. There was a row. What problem would give a correct diagnostic reading but result in low engine temperature? Anyone?
