So I have an 05 G35 coupe. I took it into service because the heated seats barely get warm even on high. He says this is just how it is with "older" G35's. Anyone else have this same issue that can concur with what he is saying?

Thanks!

 

my heated seat sucks ****. only the back part gets warm but the passenger seat works well. haven't taken it in yet b/c i've got the extended warranty and it's been warm in so cal.

so, they won't fix it?? wtf it should be able to get super warm if working properly. dealer better not try and fvck me over

 

I didn't think mine even worked. I bought it in the summer and it didn't even feel like it was on. I went out in the middle of the night when it was cool and turned it on and sure enough it does work but much like yours it's enough to tease me and then it cycles and cools. I just turn it off and back on again to get it to cycle. I have an 04 coupe and it seems the passenger side gets warmer. I have heard a lot of complaints about this myself.

 

I have an 04 and the passenger works great and the driver sometimes work. When it does work it seems like it shuts down after it gets too hot but doesn't start back up. I guess it doesn't matter since I live in Phoenix and I need cooled seats instead.

 

Both of mine work pretty well.

 

the heated seats are realitive to ambient temperature. if its hot outside your not going to feel hot, best way to check them is it has to be nice and chilly outside and have a digital pyrometer and check the surface temp of the leather on a heated seat that is on to the passenger seat that is off.

when the heater element has to be replaced you have to replace the leather trim assembly and thats where it helps to have an extended warranty since its like 2g's per seat.

 

+1

 

Mine get too hot, I only used it like once

 

mine cycle

kinda sucks

i want to get black interior eventually...when i do i think i'll get some ford heating elements and retrofit them in there in place of the infiniti ones. ford ones get nice and toasty haha

 

audi or VW get even hotter, very very very quickly they almost burn your ***.

 

i'm in florida, you can have mine! :P

 

my brother turned mine on as a joke in az in the middle of summer, I didn't even really notice I hope its not weaksauce I was looking forward to it in the winter.

Does the climate control settings have anything to do with how hot the seat might get or no?

 

no it does not

 

yeah i took mine into the dealer once and they hold me they tested it against another 06 coupe and it was the same.....i call bs....they always tell me they did something and i end up coming back to fight with them...i live i cali so its not that necessary..but damn 40K car and can't even get a decent seat heater....lame

 

My 05 seats get warm.
