CT 200h 2012

First actually cold day since I got my CT 200h and the heat does not appear to be working properly :x This could be a simple "I don't know how the **** my car works" issue, but I think there's something up.

The problem: When on auto (and with temp set high) the AC makes a bunch of noise but doesn't seem to produce any heat. I can smell hot air being hot somewhere, but not in the vicinity of my body (nor from the dash near the windshield). Cold air works fine when the temp is set lower.

Now before you say my heat just doesn't work at all, I CAN press the dude with an arrow punching him in the mouth on the top right and manually up the fan and get hot air. But I'm too ****ing lazy to do that and surely the Auto is supposed to work better than it is currently anyway.

So ... halp?

is the AC light on? You want that off so you get warm air and not Air Conditioning.

Yea I turned that off. It was making hot air (could smell it/hear it) but just wasn't blowing it out.

From what I can tell, when the system is set to heat in auto, the method of vent is automatically set to blow at your feet and not to your face. Also, not much air will come out until the car warms up. As far as I know, there is no way to change that other than manually punching the guy in the face.
