Heating Controls
Wonder if somebody out there can help. Is it possible to have the heating on (any temperature) and not have the fan on at the same time? As soon as I turn the fan 'off', the heating goes off. i just want to have heat, or cold, on in the car without the fan blasting away. Cheers.
How would the car warm you (or cool) without the fan passing the hot (or cold) air into the cabin?
You can turn the fan speed down.

Thanks for the replies folks. On every car I've had in the past, bm's, Hyundai, Honda's, Merc's, you could have the temp set at hot or cold to heat or cool the car without having to have the noisy fan on. So it seems I can turn it down to an annoying hum, but not off then? Grrrr.
Not something I've come across through my car ownership.
Also worth noting that it's generally seen as good practice to keep the system on to maintain air circulation through the car to prevent misting etc, and keeping the aircon on keeps that system in good health, preventing seals from drying out and needing work.

Many years ago older vehicles did exactly what you say you could set the controls to heat or cool , and the forced air flow was enough to heat or cool the cabin but unfortunately modern cars have pollen filters and clean air systems that restrict the through flow of air and a fan is required to overcome the restrictions
