ventilated seats

Does anybody have the "Climate Comfort" seat option in the
E320 or E500 `03 models that actually WORKS?
I don`t mean the fan working . I am interested in knowing if anybody feels the difference when it's turned on.
I understand that this was the first year that this option was
offered for the E-Class.

I have the Vent seats and I love them. When you turn it on it doesn't hit you right away. In about 3 minuets the seats start to feel "breezy". It's not "blow your butt away" air, it very subtle. But it does make the seats feel more comfortable. I’m guessing your expectations about the air flow are too high.

I think it also depends on what kind of clothes you are wearing. If you have long thicker panst or shirt the effect is not as big as with summer clothes( shorts, t-shirt, etc.)
