Heated Seats?

Heated Seats?
I was wondering if anyone else had had the problem of them BARELY getting hot. I drive for abour 40 minutes, and they BARELY get my a$$ warm! I reported it to the dealer in massapequa(GREAT PEOPLE BY THE WAY), but they said it matched their thermometer. I got a rental 06 with heated seats, and in 5 minutes i had to turn it off and almost pull over and sit in a lake it was so hot! Anyone got any ideas? BESIDES search?

Not to insult your intelligence, but it is set to High right? There's 2 settings available. I've had my seats take awhile to heat up before. Almost like 20mins on High. Maybe the 06 rental has better heating as oppose to our model/year.

Haha YES its on high! I THINK anways. I have an 03 5AT, isnt high when its pressed forwards?! If not, then i shall hide in a corner. But i have tried both, and it definately does not get hot. And i could REALLY use it right now, being thats its 23 degrees in NY, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY!

^I know what you mean...had to get up this morning at 9 to drop someone off and its cold as ish' outside...
yes, pushing the button forward is high
Then maybe its just meant to take that long. I tried my seat out again this morning and its took about 20mins after I spent 10mins heating the engine up. That shouldn't be related, but it seems to be.

My moms Grand Prix seats get 20x hotter.
hmm...I think I need to try mine on low and see what happens. I do the remote start and leave the seat on High, and get nothing. Guess I'll try setting it on low tomorrow morning.
