BMW Remote/Ventilation

I used the ventilation for the first time to see if it helps and when I got in the car it blows hot air... Is that how it's suppose to work?

It does help. It doesn't blow cool air but it does vent out the very hot air and replace it with less heated air.

Good to know does it matter how long it suppose to run before it may feel a bit cooler? LOL finally got the tint as well which it helps car is parked in my garage but during summer it's still hot as balls

I drive to where I run and I usually set it to run for ten minutes before I expect to get back in the car.

What I found to help the heat the best was the UV shield (70%) on the front windshield - drastic difference!

I agree, I used it the other day coming back from a winery and let the fan go on for 5 minutes, got in the car and it was just as hot if not hotter lol.

Does anyone know if you need " extra auxiliary heating (SA536)" in order to blow heat when activating Ventilation on BMW remote ? Would be nice to warm the interior cabin during winter time .
