Can someone explain please if the X5 has some sort of clever heating system I don't know about? I read that I have ability it to switch on and off via a timer but unsure what this is all about. Am I getting confused with another thread regarding a remote or something? Also what is the Wabesto thingy??

Not sure why, but it was an option on petrols I believe but you'll find the wiring is there under the bonnet.

Takes longer to warm a diesel up, so the AUX is there to warm the block up.

So other than having to carry out a switching mod. It doesn't really do anything special? What is the timer set option then on the computer display?

So you can set it to come on runs for half hr or so, 2 timers suppose to do a warm the car up a tad. Also should clear screen so no crapping, but as said may not evan work.
