Title: Help with heated seats
Post by: Beefy McMoo on 19 November 2007, 09:31

I've just got a quick question about the heated seats.

I have leather heated seats in my GTI, but the passenger seat and drivers seat seem to heat up differently.  On the passenger side the heat also seems to come on the lower back part of the back rest, rather than just your bum.  where as the drivers seat just warms your Bum.  Is this correct, or is there a problem with the seat??

Can somebody else check their car?
Cheers,

On mine you get the bum and lower back heated on both seats.

Ditto

Sounds like one of the heating elements have gone, not uncommon

Defo a problem with your driver's seat.  I have had heated seats on a Mk3 VR6 Highline, a Mk5 R32 and now my Ed30 and they ALL heated your backside and back.
