Can the temperature at which the heater kicks in be changed? At the moment I understand it's set to 5 deg C. This morning it was 6 deg C and the car was barely warm by the time I reached work, but with the Webasto I can feel warm air in less than half a mile.
 
I have no idea. But it can be altered to operate with a webasto timer, that can also be used to start it manually. Maybe you can check with a local websto dealer.

It should be possible to just start it manually, the CC unit operates a relais and that just starts the heater. If you can identify the relais you should be able to start it.

Heater should cut in at 7' or lower.
You havn't hit econ button by mistake? This switches it off completely!
 
Dear midwifetwin

Maersk knows things about the inner workings of A2's - just like like midwives know the inner workings of their patients.

My heater (which isn't a Webasto diesel burner but the electric replacement) kicks in when the temp drops from 6 to 5.5 degrees. I can clearly make out its buzzing interference noise on my radio (even/especially when it's off).

So I go for 5.5 degrees! Any more bids?

My manual says 'at temperatures below about 5 deg C the supplementary heater is switched on (and off) automatically'. P108
 
Yip it is a pity the darn thing can't be switched on at will as you can with the heated rear view mirrors...

Can be done, just fit webasto control unit. Or locate the wire that switches it on and override that.
