The AC works great, but the heater seems weak at best. Thank goodness for the heated seats. I am running a ScanGage, and I know that the operating temps are proper, but the air coming out of the vents is tepid.

Is everyone else in the same, cold boat?

Mine is a Cabrio and it works great.
Not really....as a matter of fact the sun warms mine up great and I don't even have heated seats.....that must be nice!

Without heated seats, my SMART would be like riding in a WWII jeep. Perhaps I need to give the dealership a call.

Thanks
My '08 Cabrio heat works well. Like any small displacement engine, it does take a few minutes to heat the coolant enough to generate ventolation heat - say 8-10 min. I also have heated seats, which are nice on cold days - in fact, on the high setting it feels like your arse is burning! I love rag-topping so much, that if the outside temp. is >40, I'll run the heat, fan, and seat heaters all on high, keep the windows up, and drop the top during my commute - even up to 65mph. I have yet to need a coat, hat, or gloves! If you're not getting sufficient heat >10min, check your coolant level, and/or have your dealer check your ventolation system thermostat?
I need to learn to spell "ventilation"....
