Hate cold pizza. I put the pie on the passenger side floor and turn the heater on with only the floor vents open. Works well.

naaah, no ABG off light this time got 2 small ones w/o extras... anyways, this side of the pond, some things are waaay smaller than in good ol' US

as for cold pizza, remember big arnie himself in the movie end of the days preparing his breakfast? well after seeing that movie I kinda don't like cold pizza anymore cause I always think about that scene.

I can't remember that scene. The only thing I know is that I can't stand that watch

Skinny *** white boy plan for cold winter driving:

1) Crank everything to 11.
2) Adjust heat with windows/sunroof opening only.
3) Eventually decrease heat settings, but leave blower at 11 while adjusting windows/sunroof.
4) Eat cold pizza.

The seat heaters work exactly as designed, per the detailed specifications provided by PAG marketing.

An extensive analysis of the targeted Cayenne owner demographic (in non technical terms .... Fat assed soccer Moms) lead to the exact BTU performance.

In executive test drives, some potential owners felt appropriate buttocks warming at 5, validating the physiological and demographic analysis.

Now move along ....

I think it might work better to put it under the hood on top of the engine.. on the V8 it looks as if it would take a medium size pizza box just fine.. Just pray your coolant pipes don't decide to let go - ethelyne-glycol isn't a suggested pizza topping.

BTW - completely sorta almost on-topic..

Has anyone figured out a way to add LED lights to the seat-heater controls? That is one thing BMW does MUCH better then Porsche (most BMWs have 3 heat levels and 3 LEDs per switch.. one lit up is low, two medium, and guess what three means? None is off..) With our semi-winter-tropical-weather swings in NJ (today it got up to 67F.. got some good riding on the real BMW in.. earlier this week the high temp was 29F..) I'm always finding I left the heater on (BMWs also toggles to OFF with the ignition off..)

Clearly, extensive research must have been conducted entirely for the sake of safety in order to establish the FIP (flatulence ignition point) as a means to minimize potential lawsuits down the road... for said demographic.

If you guys really want to warm the pizza, just put it over motor block with the coolant pipes busted.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking and we should add a few visuals before moving along?
