heating winter
Hi guys,
in my country winter is not very cold. Today was -1°C and my rx8 wont heat when i drive it.
I set the temperature to 24°C but all the way i felt cold on my 60km long way. It was able to heat to around 15°C
Now techically it is heating but its weak.
Only way to make it heat is to drive it agrresively. I mean to frequently rev it not just holding 100km\h on 6gear ~ 3000rpm like i have done.
Any suggestions how to make the heating work?

I haven't seen that before.
Are you the original owner? Maybe someone tried to fix it before and reconnected it wrong?

I am 3rd owner. I was thinking the same way but then i got idea what if i pushed wrong buttons.
Just to clarify, i pushed the buttons circled with red on photo. Those are the buttons mentioned in DIY?

Turn the stereo on.
Push and hold the middle ****.
Then push the scan button on the right while holding the middle button down.
You should see numbers between 0-16.
0 = cold, 16 = hot.
Turn the temp. ****, it should transition through the numbers smoothly.

I could not do that. I dont have scan button on my radio there Look at the photos. The photo before was just ilustration i downloaded from internet.
So i tired all the buttons on my radio and something happened when i pushed power button + TA button. It showed me how does it registers temperature and fan setting circle rotation. But no 0 to 16 difference.
This only told me only it registers fine temp and fan cirle setting change.
I think temperature sensor might be faulty, or cooling thermostat stuck open, or rail to radiator clogged.
On photos my radio and the display with Power + TA pushed.
