The heated seats in my 07 MCS are scorching hot - even on the lowest setting. They are really unbearable even in Chicago's never-ending 8 F temps!

I've noticed fixes for this problem in R53's. Is there a fix for my R56?

 

mine are really hot on level 3 and then just cozy on level 1

 

Mine start hot on 3 then dissipate after a time. 1 is pretty comfortable.

 

What's the fix for R53's? I have the same problem.

 

The service department can adjust the settings and should do so for free if still in the warranty period. My settings are about right - I crank 'em up with "3" and then go down to "2" or "1" to stay warm the rest of the drive home (50 minute commute).

 

I turn my seat heater off after I warm up. By then the cabin heater is up to temperature, no problem!
