If you have the heated and cooled seats, they take around 5 minutes to get warm and 10 minutes to get roasting hot.

It takes a little time when you have the thick leather seats. Like in the Vogue model.

My seats are warm in less than a min I’d say. No issues with demisting either when pressing max. Never move a car ( whatever it is) unless I have you have full visability. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Sounds like you need either a remote start up controller or you need to set a remote startup in the screen settings... Heated & cooled seats take longer to heat than just electric heated elements in the lower specced models... |

As above, cooled seats use a different system to heat the seats to a seat that doesn’t have cooling. My TDV8 with cooled seats takes a good few mins to get warm, whereas my previous TD6 got warm very quickly as that had a proper heating element.

The system tries to be intelligent, where if you have a hot temperature set, it will tend not to blow cold air out as that’s not what is selected, so when engine is cold you will notice a delay whilst the water heats up a bit. Mine is similar when cold started.
