I know that the Logicon unit for the heater is not the best, but what sort of heat can I expect to get in the winter? I literally have to warm the car for at least 10 minutes with the fan on full blast, before I can actually get in the car without freezing my *** off.

 

My heat used to be great, and it used to heat up quickly. I just changed my thermostat, and now it takes FOREVER. I just recieved an OEM thermostat, that I'm putting in tommorow. Hopefully that will fix my problem. I'll let you know if that helps me. If so, a new thermostat is only like $10 or something.

 

tuffen up wussy. just kidding, maybe there is some sort of problem with your heater because mine will warm up in like 3-5 min.

 

Mine takes a few minutes before it warms up enough to get warm. Once the car warms up... I've found it to have some of the HOTEST heat around...

 

umm, the heater has nothing to do with how fast it gets warm in the morning... if you left your heater off the engine would warm up faster. your engine needs to heat up before it can blow warm air. leave your heater off or at full cold for the first 5 mins then turn it on.

putting a mazda thermostat would probably help it to id you don't already have one in.

 

Hmmm, ok. I will try leaving the heater off when I warm up the car. Oh, and I did have the thermostat replaced about a month ago (Mazda replacement). I also replaced the Logicon unit with a second hand one about a year ago (the original, just didn't work at all).
Thanks people.

 

Hehehe... I hate the cold!!! Since I'm from Australia, I have to say that the weather here in Canada, without a doubt, really SUX!!!!!!
