Never heard of that one. My BMW has a 'residual heat' function that
allows the heater to be used without the engine running. For say
passengers when the driver nips into the shops or whatever. Gives
about 15 minutes of heat. Uses an electric pump. But obviously only
when the engine was hot.



ISTR it being offered as an extra on the 5 series about 20 years ago.


Well my BMW is a 5 Series and getting on for 20 years old and fully loaded.
I had the two previous 5 Series too.
