Sensor man Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Any body tell me if there is a pre-heater on board the A3 (2015) model that heats the cabin, aids the demist of front screen? Outside air temp is below freezing and window is already demisting / de icing after a min or two (cabin is feeling warm) Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I'm not 100% but I think it depends if it was specified? Check in your MMI to see if there is any reference to an "auxiliary heater" there. Also double check your manual for reference of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Cool let us know. It's one of those features you don't even think about until it's -4 outside and suddenly it becomes quite useful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensor man Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Yes, definitely has some sort of heater in there. Minus 2 the other morning, Fire up, turn controls to 23c and two mins the whole car is defrosted, everyone else is still scarping ice from their windows. Watched it from outside, airflow is biased towards drivers side, so this bit clears faster than rest of screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Interesting. Do you have the option to start it remotely or on a timer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
