Loving my cooled seats in this weather !

Been a bit warmer finally - and even when I hit the 'max ac' button the greenhouse, I mean Range Rover - takes quite a while to cool down.

So fired up the cooled seat a couple of times in the last few days and its... well really really nice to have a cooled backside! And leg and back - while the AC gets the temperature down.

The is my first Range Rover and the driver / interior experience is something else. I've never had a car with this kind of luxury and whilst warmed seats made sense and have been great, I never really thought much about cooled seats... But they are so great !

All adds to the amazing Range Rover experience!

So here's to turning the seat dial to the left!

. Cheers, Greg

In my previous cars even with AC full on you'd still finish you journey stuck to the seat, cool seats stop that.

How cool do the cooled seats get, used mine for the first time yesterday and I could feel a bit of cold air on the base, but nothing in the back! Current: TDV8 (3.6) RRS HSE

You can have it on: BASE / BACK / BOTH so hit the button on the front of the dial and see if that makes sense.

There is also a round filter that can use a clean out once in a while. Raise your seats up to max, stick your head under and you'll see it. A quarter turn removes it. Cheers, Greg

Mine take a few minutes to kick in and are not that cold, just enough to stop a sweaty crevice

The peltier cells don't have much range, about 7º below ambient and 9º above so the cooler you get the car the colder they will blow. 2008 MY Supercharged

thanks for all the answers, I located the filters and twisted them off this morning, don't look over dirty but suppose it would do no harm to change them, probably won't cost that much to replace.

Are the seats in vse/ab the same as in a vogue apart from the leather?

my vogue was speced with heated and cooled seats. Current: TDV8 (3.6) RRS HSE
