The Other I know uses engine or something engine wise, will not start if plugged in. So if I used this one yes it would fill the garage. Hence I don't, and the fact that the car is always plugged in in the garage. As I said mine is a T8 |

With preconditioning, if you have all the required options on board, it sets the cabin to an unspecified 'comfort temperature'. Around 20C I'd imagine. I think that's still correct anyway.... Last edited by Milliner; Sep 28th, 2018 at 12:54. |

Irrelevant for you since you don't have the hybrid, but answering in case anyone else was interested :-)

Hi, I hope you don't think that I am trying to pick apart what you are saying but....
In what you say above, are you saying that your pre-conditioning heating only works when it is plugged in? If so then there is definitely something wrong. In my experience the T8 pre conditioning heating works perfectly when not plugged in. In fact I can summarise below for my 2016 XC90 T8: Plugged in: Temp below 10c. Car warms using (we think) aux fuel burning heater. Temp above 22c ish. Car cools using air conditioning. Not-plugged in: Temp below 10c. Car warms definitely using aux fuel burning heater. Temp above 22c ish. Car cools using ambient air drawn in from outside. The only bit I am not 100% certain of is the first statement where I added in "I think". The other statements are absolutely correct for my car based on using the car for 2.5 years.

If you have the aux heater fitted and don't use ERS but use pre-conditioning via the app to cool the car on a hot day then external air is blown through the car to help cool it. The aircon isn't used as that would require the engine to be running. All this is true for D5 and T6 XC90s. A T8 may behave differently to this? (And XC60s, etc, different again?)

See my post #19 above re forced ventilation on a hot day.
