Heated Seats, barely feel them?

Im wondering if my heated seats are working properly or not..

I barely feel it, it's basically next to nothing, is this normal?

My old car the rsx had better heated seats, by far.

I was wondering the same thing. My seat heaters are weak as well. They take 20 minutes to even feel warm at all. The heated seats in my moms jetta will damn near melt the credit cards in my wallet

Weak on the new 2007 G35 Sedan too... pretty much pointless. By the time the seats heat up the cars warmed up and you don't need them.

Yikes, I used mine last night and had to turn them off because they burned my back and butt. LOL.

Maybe you guys need to take it to have it checked.

Compared to my Audi TT, the heated G seats are pathetic. The TT heated seats have settings from low to high, and at high it will really toast your butt. Any time my back would get stiff, I'd turn the setting to high and it would lossen up my back. With the G it's hard to tell the differance between when the heated seats are on or off.

Yeah, I was just noticing that the other day as well in my 05.

In my 04, the seats got hot enough I had to turn them off. In my 05, they take awhile to warm up. When they do, they're nothing compared to what I felt in my 04.

Mine aren't that great either. After a couple of times using them it has gotten a bit better. Not as hot as I thought it would be though

I saw a post like this before I scratched my head then and still now. I've turned the heater on high once and it was way too hot. The low setting is perfect but after 10 minutes I have to turn it off b/c it's too hot. You guys must be really insulated

I feel them just fine in <2 min. Then again... I use them when it drops to 60 here in SoCal.. Actually, I use them before working out/running/playing soccer too. They warm up the legs/body.
