Now its a little colder, I'm beginning to doubt the PTC heater in my MY10. The air doesn't appear significantly warmer first thing, until the engine warms up. Perhaps my PTC isn't working. Should the air actually feel warm with the heater on?

Not as warm as when the engine is warm but you should certainly notice a difference. As npinks said in another post, it operates automatically according to outside temp so no need to press anything (not sure how low the temp needs to be to trigger it)

It's like lighting a match while sitting in the drivers seat, that doubles the heat output. |
