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:

1K1998250 Leitungssatz für PTC 51,11€
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:

What's this?

What's this?
its an electric heater which is a nice feature in the winter. Starts giving of heat after 30 seconds. All soot chuckers have them

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.

weird,
is your car a UK supplied car?
if it is what year is it?
-

Passat 11 plate doesn't have one

The German TDI as well. Mk.V from the beginning (2003).
Mk.IV I don't know exactly, but I guess around 2000 they had this (the older 'water heat' version).

so hoooold upp...
assuming my car hasn't got this fitted which I dont think it has,
all thats required for this is the heater element, a positive power feed, earth and a pair of can bus splices and I can have warm air in my golf within 30seconds in the winter?....
-
Yes.
First have a look if you have a 140 A alternator or at least a 120 A type.
All TDI and all GTI I've looked at had the 140 A.
