Yepp - we do have an Auxillary Heater fitted as standard (in Norway) but I dont understand what that has to do with a Booster Heater or the Parking Heater that you mention you want but cant fit beacuse you dont have the Auxillary Heater

English is not my native language, and technical terms can be "Russian" for me.

OK - understand you Bjartin - I was getting pretty confused as well and looking at the handbooks didnt help me any. I did mention PCT Heater - that should have been PTC Heater which is also Russian to me But must be the Booster Heater (F16 pull - Recall P011 etc.)

The fuel fired booster heater is an option in the UK, can't see it being necessary, especially with fuel being expensive.

Bjartin & Andy, the auxillary heater (fuel driven) heats the cooling water to achieve a quicker warming-up of the engine and to assist heating function in cold weather. The auxillary heater can be upgraded to a "parking heater" like WEBASTO at relatively little money. The auxillary heater will be active around 5°C.

Thanks YF and chris8of9 for the info, however there seems to be some mix-up for the different heater names

I've been in touch with 2 LR dealers in Norway and the auxiliary heater that is installed here is a Webasto parking heater that has been modified to work as a auxiliary heater. It's possible to buy a conversion kit to also make it work as a parking heater. One dealer say's it's working well but the other told me that they had problems with error messages since the auxiliary heater is so closely integrated with the electronics of the car.
