2010 Range Rover Autobiography 5.0 SC V8 Galway Green

Geoff, what you can also do is put a little electric fan heater in the car, extension cord into the house and plug it in in the morning. I used to do that on cold winters in my Triumph Herald and it worked like a dream. A warm interior and clean car and since the engine and heater started working relatively quickly it didn't get too cold after driving off.

The Swedish do something similar only then they usually add a heating element in the cooling system of the car with an external plug. It is great as that also heats up the engine coolant making the engine start "warm" and allow the heater to work straight away as well. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

When I switched on the screen heating (not often needed) I noticed a slight trembling (as one would see above hot tarmac in the distance) that would disappear immediately when switched off . Anyone noticed that? Is that normal? I find that irritating.

Nicely done Stan, snow in the desert
