Hi, it could be a number of things, but first off, when the engine is cold check the coolant level. If it`s low, top up with water/antifreeze.
It may be a faulty thermostat, an airlock in the system or even that the heater control switch is not opening/closing the valve that lets the water thru the system,and yes it could be the heater matrix, but its not too expensive.
Try and find a good independant garage to have a look and get a quote.
Best of luck

I have the same problem and have been told it will be expensive to fix as the whole of the dashboard has to come out and both front doors off. Surely this is not necessary is it ?
