Default Why do the heaters get warm so fast?
Even when I start my car from cold, the heaters seem to get warm really fast compared to any other car I've ever had, does it have something that warms them up quicker or is it just the heated seat playing tricks on me?

It's probably the seat heater fooling you.
Even on the lowest setting the seat gets quite hot quite quickly.
Try putting the a/c heating on but leave the seat heater off and see if it makes a difference.

Would it not be because of (C2Z2696 - Auxiliary Heater) which is an electric booster heater in the AC/Heater box?
