Maybe it's not supplying it direct to the seat but you having it on and on a lower setting may be having an effect on it, leather is absorbant anyway so will suck in the ambient air, if the ambient air is cold it will suck in cold air, I'm also led to believe there is a fan in the seat to aid this process?

 

The last two replies are very interesting in the link thread.

I guess you don't have vented seats then.

And that has to do with what?

 

All the way through I've tried to help you and all the way through you've come back with nose in the air replies,

 

 

You are the first person to have a fault that only shows up when a male buttock sits on it, I'd love to be in the service dept when you book this one in, and more so when you come to pick it up £90 light and only a no fault found recipt to show for it, crack on son!

You do realise how silly this sounds don't you?

 

They won't work properly when you sit on them with the ac running @ 19

 

They work fine when the wife sits on them with less ac intervention @ 22

 

I can only suggest you either lose or gain weight to the same level as the wife or reduce your core body temps so less will feel like more, or waste money at the dealer having it checked for a fault that isn't there, if it's broken then it's broken for all not just you, it works when the wife sets the ac to 22 it doesn't when you set it to 19 is that not easy to grasp?

I came across this thread today after trying the heated seats in my 2018 Mk3 Executive for the first time. Remembering in comparison to previous vehicles I have owned from VW with heated seats (leather and non-leather variants) there was a definite difference in how warm they got compared to the Skoda i.e. the VW's become unbearable when on setting 3 within 5-10mins no matter what seat material. The seats in my Superb get warm, slower, but never too hot. After reading what someone commented on about settings in VCDS I decided to investigate and was able to compare the Superb to an adaption scan of respective setting from a VW I had, here's the results:

 

Skoda Superb's 2018 SE L Executive heated seat settings:

 

VW Transporter 2020 T6.1:

 

As you can see, the highest heat setting on the VW can reach 53 degrees C in comparison to the Skoda which is 41. That's a significant difference and to me explains what's going on. Whilst 53 was always too hot in the VW it was useful to get the initial heat going, whereas 36 on middle setting felt too low.

I actually think the ideal upper settings should be something like this : 23, 41, 52.

 

Quite odd the way the heat settings aren't standard across all VAG... but possibly having the lower setting helps conserve energy or extend component life.

I might make some adjustments when I get round to it and see what it does.

Interesting, is this changeable in the adaptation?  I might have a fiddle and see.

Seeing as it showed on the extract it suggests so. Whether it

lets you adjust the range is

another matter (I can’t see what values are configurable).

Oddly I couldn't find this adaptation in my Superb 2.   My VCDS doesn't show this as an available adaptation channel in the 3T0 907 044 BS controller.

 

But the change works fine in the Kodiaq (MQB Platform) and does indeed get hotter.
