Going to get one ordered just in case. The water temp gauge does go half way hence why I thought it may not be this.

rifht crossed wires here guys i was talking about my heated bike jacket.
the seats on the other hand apparently have a thermo stat in the base of the seat lots of write ups on here how to fix them. you can at the same time upgrade the stat to give a warmer seat. which is my plan shortly when they the new stats arrive from china. my seats are dead iv traced it to duff heating elements in the seat the seat back is fine.

Not sure where yours will be. But mine is on the front of the engine in a horse shoe shaped cast pipe. Undo the 2 10mm bolts holding it on and see if there is one in there. Or if you can remove the bleed cap off the top and look in. Thermo looks like a spinning top.

You can't have the heated seats any hotter than they are designed to be, the reason for the thermostat is for safety.
If yours are no hot then u do have a problem.

as its been upgraded before with no ill effects cept a warm arssssssse
the chances are the problem is just due to the common breaks in the heating wire but while im in there no harm in upgrading the stat to

In your link the OP States "Ive no idea what the standard heated seats feal like"
So now with his "uprated" thermostat he now has hot seats, there's no mention of comparison tests regarding temperature pre and post to the upgrade.
My D1 seats get to the same temperature as the day I took delivery from the LR dealer back in 1997... Hot!
much same as another modern four seater car I own which all four seats are heated.

D1 heated seats?
Is this standard or not? I've wondered why there are wires coming out the center consol. How would i know if they are fitted?
