Thread: Puma heater

Hi db,ours seems fine

we often find that when we are cold we turn the heater up by the time its up we are hot so turn it down a fraction it doesn't go down quick enough, so turn it down a fraction again to the point when it does react we are to bloody cold and have to start turning it up a fraction again.....

you cant just set and forget if that makes sense you have to constantly adjust it.

Yeh its a juggling act, usually way too hot for me. By the time i've moved it to the cold zone it takes a while to react.

same here. it's got about a hundred settings, but only 3 that are useful . and it gets too hot very quickly in the crew-cab, and then won't cool back down again. and since i hate aircon i just open the window

slt

Same same And we find the air-con is the same either freezing or not. I think the whole system works if you use it in bursts. Which is OK cause it gives you something to do on long drives

Cheers,

Yes it is slow to act but no more so than I've ever found with a heater control of this sought. The Disco (especially D2a) climate control spoilt us I think.

That said at least it does warm the cabin very well hen needed.

Mine does this too. I find that if I have the heater on demist and full hot, but then turn the thermostat to full cold, I need to run the AC to actually get cold air to come out of the vents!

I don't think I've ever had my one more than 3 clicks off cold, I find thats warm enough. I haven't had the courage to turn it all the way around to "full" hot yet, as I'm scared flames will actually come out of the vents!!

Cheers,
