Good Afternoon;

2007 BMW 530i E60 (162k miles) heater issues. I am the third owner. Love this car! Heater will only heat 15-20 degrees above outside temp. After checking maintenance records, I find that this was an issue since day one (initial home was in Seattle, WA for 12 years). Dealer basically told owner to use defroster and wait.

I have replaced thermostat and heater control valve all with zero improvement. AC works fine as does all the climate-control. Except heater.

I am led to believe this is a quirk of the E60.

IDEAS????? It was -12 today so I was a bit unhappy.


Thanks......
