Oct 22 (Reuters) - Auto parts maker Delphi Automotive Plc 
 DLPH.N  is looking to sell its business that makes heating and 
cooling systems for cars, and will seek as much as $1 billion, 
Bloomberg reported, citing people with knowledge of the matter. 
    Delphi has approached companies including French automotive 
supplier Valeo SA  VLOF.PA  and South Korea's Halla Holdings 
Corp  060980.KS  and is planning to meet with potential buyers 
this week, Bloomberg reported. (http://bloom.bg/1vNB2o6)
