retrofit PTC heater from TDI models
« on: August 29, 2011, 03:59:09 pm »
Found this:

1K0963235E Heizelement 305,83€
1K1998250 Leitungssatz für PTC 51,11€
1K1819349E Abdeckung 8,45€
1K0972704C Flachkontaktgehäuse 0,32€
000979009E Einzelleitung (can-bus) 2,32€
N10118105 Bundmutter M5 0,64€
1K0919625 Bundschraube 0,13€
N10525506 Sicherung 100A 2,14€

GTIs should have the same 140 A alternator as the TDI models.
So not an issue at all. Required labour is two to three hours.

If you like it warm in the winter time.  :wink:

Is this for 1 cable or a set, ie 2 cables.

As 1Q0 971 478 A/B is the wiring harness for this heater, I guess its HIGH Amp cable. at twice the price of the above.

I was looking into doing this on my Tdi, but then read reports that there was also a fire issue, due to a bad earth, which caused over heating.

I pulled all the drivers side trims off looking on where this is to be fitted, couldn't find the slot in the HVAC. Couldn't make sense of the diagram.  :sad1:

Everything in the 1st link above needed? A pricey mod. Will get another remap and wear an extra T -shirt  :grin:

Loving all the retro fits and oem upgrades on this site though, sensible purposeful modifying  :happy2:

AFAIK, this option was only usually available / fitted in cold climate countries i.e. Sweden, Norway, Finland, etc.

Every TDi that I have scanned with my Vag-com in the UK has had one
7D - Auxilary PTC-Heater

The rarer one is Address 18 - Auxilary Heating (Webasto Heater)

Mine don't :booty: its even unchecked in VCDS, followed that link where the guy retro fitted the heater, I don't have the fuse either. Hence the reason I went looking for it.

Any other checks would be welcome.
