2001 A4 1.8TQ with 126,000 Km. The driver seat is too hot to sit on even if the setting is at 1. Anyone know what could be the problem?

 

There is a short in the system. Happened to a co-worker's Brand new A6 and set fire to the seat. Needless to say, after the fire department finished with his car, he declined further purchases of Audi products.


Don't know what the actual problem is. Could be the rheostat in the switch giving full power at 1. Time to pull out the wiring diagrams and a voltmeter.

 

Does it get very hot on 2 or 3?

 

oh man, the seats have been known to get WAY to hot and smoke the seats. DO NOT continue to use it. Go this fixed.

 

I plan not to use it.

 

maybe u shud just stop using it...duh.....b4 u roast ur asssssssss
