The seat heating works fine if you turn it on from the car itself, but no matter what I try it will no longer turn on from the pre-heat function on the app. The cabin heating is working ok when set from the app, but the seat's not on, even though it's shown as being on!

Logged off the app, rebooted it etc. No change. It did used to work....

It may be conditional if the car thinks the seats need heated i.e. it isn't cold enough and so shows 'active' if needed. Complete guess on my part.

Same problem here... Cabin is on temperature but no seat heating anymore.
Anyone else with this issue?

I just started remotely pre heating again now that it is colder and indeed the two times I did the seats heating was not activated. It used to do that last winter.

The app says set seat ventilation and temperature.

I don’t know if this has changed since an update. The app does have some new functionalities since a couple of weeks.

I had the same. Didn’t seem to work from the app. However now that it gets colder: it starts heating below 10 degrees . Same with heated steering wheel. Don’t know if there is a setting for this. In my X5 this was possible in climate rules.

Went looking in the manual. Apparently it is based on interior temperature . Interesting it states temperature for ventilation but not for heated seats.
