Is it just me or is the heater weak?

Seems like the heater in my M340i is really weak compared to my ‘06 Camry and IS200t.

You probably have the vent temperature dialed in the middle or in the cooler settings. If you want warmer air coming from your vents, press "MENU A/C" button and set the temperature on the top to the hottest setting.

Mine glitches sometimes and blows cold air even tho it's warmed up and driven for 20 minutes... The dealer can't replicate it and fix it it happens on rare occasions and cold Canadian winters suck!!

Mine is good. Actually I usually have to keep the temp 65-69, otherwise it gets too warm in the car.

I put it in the middle. I didn't that had to do with temperature, rather which side it flows more.

So far this winter I’ve been impressed how fast this car heats up. 20 degree days and I have heat after driving only a few blocks.
