Hi everyone.
I'm new to this forum, and I've only been with my Yeti for 3 months. Previous partner was a VW Caddy Maxi van.
As with most diesels the Yeti engine takes a long time to warm up.
I was hoping that the climate controlled air-con would quickly warm up the interior, but alas, no.
I have been checking out electric coolant heaters on t'internet, but I am unsure whether it would be safe to fit to the Yeti cooling system.
The most efficient heaters seem to be fitted in the lower heater hose, and rely on either natural convection circulation, or they have a small integral pump.
The bit that I can't get an answer to, is, does the Yeti with climate control have a water valve in the heater circulation plumbing, and if so, is the valve open when the ignition is off?
