    You haven't actually answered this. And because you seem to refuse to answer to shouting, Topdaddy, how does the heating system work in a stop start car?
    He has ignored various pertinent posts, including the fact that Mercedes have had heating systems that work on residual heat in the engine with the ignition key out and the car locked for 20 odd years.

    All he has said is how he thinks things don't work, he cannot explain how they do work.

    If Topdaddy refuses to explain clearly how modern car heating systems work, then I think we can safely assume he does not know.

    Last chance I would say.

    I can almost forgive ignoring the Mercedes post, as Topdaddy himself said that he had VAG cars, so could have no knowledge of Mercedes systems.

    I agree, last chance.

    This is ridiculous. You obviously have no idea about car heating systems, as you claim, or you would have explained it by now. You are contributing nothing to this thread and haven't for ages.

    Well I, and several others on here, disagree with you. I feel, as you are massively outnumbered here, it is fair enough to ask you why your opinion differs from the majority.

    I'm probably going to get shot down in flames for this but I have to wait between 10 & 20 mins for them to come out of school and due to illness do not tolerate cold or getting chilled very well. I will add that I do feel guilty when keeping the engine running.

    a bit of cold is good for you.
