Electrically heated vents on diesels???

Post by johnparker »

Hi All

While flicking through my Haines manual last night, it said that the heater on diesel models had an electric heater element that works while the engine is cold and warming up. The element switches off at 80degC.
I am suprised to read this as im sure mine doesnt have this feature. It takes AGES to get warm air in the winter AGES and AGES!!!!!! :(

Whats recon?

Hmmm, I've heard about similar things on other diesels as well. Apparently on Audis its a Europe only option so maybe it's the same here?
