Hi Guys.
I'm after some help and other peoples experience off the heater in there E-Class.
My issue, a couple of weeks back whilst driving I suddenly noticed my left hand getting cold despite the temperature in the car set to 23c and the climate control set to Auto, the central dash vents were blowing cold air, the left and right vents were blowing warmish. If I upped the temp setting the middle vents got a little warmer but not much. With auto switched off and the system set to blow air out of the vents, I get the same temperature across all 4 vents. Last winter I left it on auto throughout and never noticed this issue and in fact was impressed with the heater overall. I spoke to my dealer and they booked the car in as they suspected a fault. It went in yesterday and has just been dropped back to me having had according to them a software update and the heater checked and everything now reported as working correctly.
I've just sat in the car with the engine up to temperature, auto and 28 degrees selected and the central vents are hardly blowing anything and what is coming out is enough to chill the hand, the left and right vents are blowing warm/hotish air but not as hot as if auto is not selected. The interior of the car was not warm either so it's not like the heater was trying to cool the car.
Before I speak to them again I was hoping some of you could check what your heater/climate is doing to see if what I'm getting is correct.
Thanks
