Xantia 2.1 TD Estate - Smelly Heater
Just replaced my Xantia for another same model etc., and found that there is a very acrid smell from the climate control when it goes into heating mode..... any one smelt this before?

I have read through the related topics and my problem appears to have been seen before.
1. Acrid burnt insulation type of smell
2. I saw a powdery puff of smoke/debris being blown out once, I guess the previous owner kept the temperature perposely low
3. No damp carpets
4. Climate control works fine, there is no smell on cool but when the heating cycle cuts in the smell appears
5. The smell gets stronger when the temperature is increased
6. The smell doesn't diminish with increased air flow/time
