If you have the heated steering wheel...
Question:
I just picked up my max last night and it has the heated steering wheel. On the way home, I flipped it on, it warmed up, alot; I turned it off. Later I flipped it on again, and I couldn't detect any heat. I began thinking something was wrong.
Today, I get in, start up the car, flip on the heat, and I feel it warm then taper back down. Subsequent flips of the switch led to almost no detectable difference; at one point I'd forgotten I switched it on.
So, what has been YOUR experience? Does it warm noticeably, or is it very slight? Do you feel the surge in heat the first time it is turned on each day? Could there be a problem with mine? I have no idea what is reasonable; never owned a car with heated steering wheel. I'm thinking it is messed up, somehow.
Any thoughts, appreciated!

Search on this...I think the conclusion was that the heater runs on cycles that really don't relate to the power switch. Once you've turned it on, it warms for a fixed period of time and then will not come back on for another fixed period of time no matter how much you flip that switch.
