Mickhoh, if you haven't found the solution yet I might be able to help. It took me two winter changeovers to realise my timer sticks to British Summer Time, regardless of what the dashboard clock says and regardless of the time of year. So if I want my heater to come on at 7.00am on a winter...

Hello Cividan I started a chat over a year ago on a similar theme : 'Pre Heating Without the App' Here's some of my thoughts therefore. I've always used the pre-heating. Even in minus conditions it clears the windscreen so seems the best option to me. For a North East English winter I set it...
