Hi,

yesterday (after 2 years of working fine in my ownership) I remotely put on the Remote Climate from the. iPhone app. 15 mins later when I got to the car there was a smell in the air of fumes/burning smell and inside the car. It disappeared shortly after starting to drive. 2017 5.0l SC model.

Today I lifted the bonnet and activated it again. after a couple of seconds I could see a faint haze of fume/smoke coming from under the pipe circled in the picture. it was too faint for the iPhone to pic it up. It smelt of fumes/burn smell. I switched the system off.

It is making a whirring noice too. Not sure if normal as never really started it up before when I was next to the car. I made a YouTube video.

Is it a known issue /fix or new Aux heater unit needed?


thanks

Your problem will be finding members with 5.0's with the rare option I'm afraid sir... Let alone with the same issues...
