I'm a little confused, it's easy to confuse me lol
I have XXV which has a park heater, but the menus on my info screen has options for timed heating but I'm unable to program as the option touch buttons are dimmed out ? Hope this makes sense.

Mine fired up first thing this morning. Smoke everywhere even in the house because I opened the front door to check it was working.

Priming isn't a fix for a non-functional FBH, priming is used to fill an empty (new fit) FBH with fuel. As it can over-fuel an FBH it can make things worse...06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

-2c this morning, inquisitive as to whether it would work as it’s all new to me moving over from the Defender, started the car and a few minutes later, bingo FBH working a treat, few minutes later the car was defrosting, magic.
Just ordered a remote kit from Bodsy

Only had D3 just over a couple of months, was away with the tint tent in Peterborough last weekend and it was down to +1 , I was happy to see a puff of smoke coming the wheel arch knowing the FBH was working OK
