Seat Heaters

[Vbonz@aol.com]

Thanks to all who responded on the seat heater element fix. What's confusing
is that I have had responses that stated the fix time being from 10 minutes to
an hour.  On a side note I have been experiencing a howling sound from the
engine compartment which I suspected was the power steering pump.  I checked
the pump and it is leaking.  The dealer wants $540 to fix it...obviously I
said no thanks.  I called Blau and they wanted $340.   I checked with them
about fixing the seat heater element while they had the car and they said it
was about an 8 hour job!  How can this be?  I was trying to avoid fixing it
myself, since it'll probably stay below zero for the next couple of months and
I don't have a heated garage.  So much for that.

Also my cruise control dosen't work when it is extremely cold.  Once the
engine is hot enough the cruise seems to work.  Is this a sign for that to
fail soon also?

Thanks
