not so hot seats.
Yesterday i went to prestige mini to have rearfogs activated and have my so called heated seats looked at.I have an - 04mcs and the seats never heated very well.They checked and said they found no faults; everything plugged in;all fuses good.But they found a mini service bulletin for seat harnesses to be changed.They special orderd them and next week they install two new harnesses Hope it works.So for all mini people with this issue it's covered with warranty so get it checked out.--bleecker

harnesses changed?
YES they changed the harness in both seats, but it really just made a slight diference. When i called them back on the still weak heated seats, they said the would then probably have to rip the seats open and take a look.At that point i said i'll think about it, but i was just really tired of the entire situation. I'LL try for round two soon, and maybe even before the winter is over. You pay for something, you want it ot work. thats all for now---bleecker

too much crack
hmmm, interesting...um, not the butt crack sweat...(euw) but my heated seats were just fine when I used them in moderate temperatures. The dealer had to remove the driver side seat in order to do work on the door, and since then, I swear that it heats to a higher temp. than it used to. Could be that the temps lately have been a lot lower than previously experienced. Someone mentioned that theirs seems to change with the ambient temperature, yes?
I kinda wonder though about seats that are uncomfortably hot. Is it possible that the heating coils are perhaps under less insulation that someone elses seat that heats to either a comfortable temp. or an unsatisfactory temp.
