Driver side blows cold but passenger side blows hot in my 97 jag xj6

sounds like you have a sticking flap inside the heater/air con unit or a faulty servo motor. the motors are fixed to the side of the unit and are not bad to get to, check them first.

I am blowing cold air in the winter and heat in the summer. What is causing this.

It's a very common problem in British cars, the same reason the British drink warm beer...they have LUCAS refrigerators. Lucas, otherwise known as the "Prince of Darkness" probably designed your heater as well. :-) Seriously though, it sounds like you need a new thermostat in your coolant system. Should be pretty cheap, even in a Jag.

No heat jaguar 88 xj6 fan wont turn on cool air out the defrost vent

I have the similar problem with both my Jaguars, one is a 1988 Jaguar XJS, the other is a 1987 Jaguar XJ6, both blow COLD air out some vents while it blows warm air for heat. I heard it had something to do with the cold air blowing as a dehumidifier, I don't know if this is true, but it is really annoying to have both cold and warm air blowing when I need heat in these cold Canadian winters. If you find out please drop this website a note and let us know how you solved it. thanks.

Thermostat was changed, had heat for 2 weeks, blowing cold air.

Check the heater core under the center console.

Jag xj6 1993.no cool air regardless of heater control position

If you put your AC on, and you get hot air instead of cold, you are likely out of Freon. You can buy it and fill it up yourself or you can take it to a car shop.

As far as condensation, you mean in cold weather right? After you drive after a while, your car is hot, and if your vents dont completely close, that hot air will go into your car. Thats a problem with your air vents, they're either not closing completely or the seals are bad.

Heating jaguar 1996 xj6 all works but no heat at all

due to the fact there is duel zone heating in these cars there is a heater control unit could a amplifier these tend to fail and you wont be able to get any heat a genuine unit is very expensive around $1500 but if you shop around you can get one for around $250 non genuine
then its just a matter of getting a jag tech to fit it

good luck

All cars have what is called a heater matrix , this car has, it is inside the car behind the dash, the purpose is to provide heat in side the car, if the car is running at normal operating temp you thermostat is ok, the heater in the car is known as a heater matrix and will block up due to lack of use as water on passing throu when you have the heat on in side the car , hence the water leaves risidual that blocks it, if you keep a good level of antifreze/summer coolant in the systym it will prevent this, it is also the first palce to be affected when you lose water from the cooling systym, i will foward the detail how to clean it out, as removal is very labour intensive,

IF ENGINE RUNS AT RIGHT TEMP SOUNDS LIKE YOU MAY HAVE AIR BLOCK, OR BLOCKED HEATER MATRIX, CHECK FIRST CHECK THE HEIGHT OF THE HEATER MATRIX IN THE CAB , IF ITS HIGHER THAN THE FILLER/EXPANSION TANK. THEN COULD BE AN AIR LOCK, LOOK FOR THE HIGHEST PIPE AND SEE IF THERE IS A BLEED VALVE, IF NOT TAKE BOTH PIPES OFF THE MATRIX FEEDS (TWO PIPES GOING FROM ENGINE BAY TO INSIDE OF CAR, AND FLUSH OUT WITH HOSE TO SEE IF IT IS BLOCKED, AND RECONNECT LOWEST PIPE FIRST AND FILL SYSTYM TILL WATER APPEAR FROM TOP AND RECONNECT RUN MOTOR, AND KEEP TOPIN UP, YOU CAN BY A COOLENT FLUSH SOLUTION TO CLEAN THE SYSTYM OUT

Check out the auxiliary water pump - it is located on the left hand side under the bonnet near the bulkhead.

Here is a link on the repair :

The problem is that the heater pump has failed. This is a small electric water pump that's near the brake master cyl. This circulates water through the heater core. ANY Jag mechanic should know this !!!! These things are about 200-300 bucks.
