so, winter finally struck across europe, not the least here in Denmark, and it's the first year for me and the 500 in the cold....
the wife has been complaining the last month about the heater, wich she think is not heating enough, I have been anoying that, since she did'nt want the car in the first place, so reconned it was just a matter of her not being able to work around the different settings...
but know I had the experience myself this morning...
when starting it up, there are no prop's at all even in -14c, just spring to live... but the heater seems not being able to work like it's supposed to...
it took about 5 minuttes to defrost the front screen, and even after running the car 45 minuttes to work, it still did'nt give enough sufficient hot air in my oppinion, (aircon on). So I tried to switch between aircon and not aircon, and honnestly could not feel the difference, even with my hand glued to the air outlet.. hmmmmm
I know it's just a 1,2 l engine but is this how ot's supposed to be? before I contact my dealership, does anyone have a similar experience with heating?
I know I have a tendancy to compare this 500 to my other lady, the 93' SUPRA MKIV, 3.0 l , in wich you won't be able to sit for long with the heater turned to max, whether airconned or not... :devil:
hope someone has a clue
