I maywell end looking pretty stupid but is there a way to dictate how much air goes to the windscreen heater pods and the cabin ones?

When I turn up the heat all the air goes to the windscreen but its me i want warm not the glass. Thanks in advance

As far as I know, no hot air at all comes out of the middle vents, just cold air. The best thing to do is to close the windscreen vents and open the footwell vents up, all the hot air should then be going to the footwell vents

LOL, easily done, I have just noticed the intermittent wiper knob on the right side of the steering column! and I've had it almost a year!!
The middle vents only work when you have the knobs set to have cold air blowing, once you set the knobs to hot, the heater flaps close off the air coming through the mid-vents, and blow hot into the windscreen and footwell vents only

Chris, I can't believe you've only just found that!

- obviously been spending too much time adding cameras and ICE

Foot vents??? Intermittent wiper knob???? Ooops had my Tammy for 10 months and I didn't notice!!!

By the way, if you close the middle cold-air vents and point the hot-air vents towards you, that should keep you warm. Problem is you lose valuable de-misting air for the windscreen!
