Removed factory block heater due to continued problems.

Started 1 week, 5 days ago (2009-06-21 22:43:00) by IdahoDoug

So, I've posted before of the issues I've had over the years with the factory block heater made for Toyota that many dealers carried. Today I finally opted to permanently remove one over concern that one day this great feature would cost me an engine. Previously, the O rings have deteriorated/compressed, causing leaks and this would have been the 3rd one ...

Block Heater?

Started 1 week, 5 days ago (2009-06-21 20:08:00) by twenty

Hey guys, The car I purchased didn't come with a block heater- what are my options for putting one in? Are the Lexus ones' the only ones that will work, or can I find an aftermarket one somewhere and do it myself? Any info is much appreciated!

Block heater location

Started 2 weeks, 4 days ago (2009-06-15 23:27:00) by TTimmons

Can anyone tell me location of the block heater on an 07 5.9L cummins? I don't have the power cord, and i want to buy one, but i just want to make sure that the block heater is even there first. Does the heater come standard when you buy the truck, and you just need to get the cord? Thanks!

Does VAG make them ...

I have looked high and low and can not find the block heater plug on this new 09. Could someone please tell me where the factory hid it? Thanks After reading the other tread concerning this I think I have answered my own question. The bums shorted me a cord. I guess Ill pick one up and install it . Thanks all

I'm working on a friend's '06. Hers came with a factory block heater wired to the correct front plug. The 110v outlet in the passenger footwell is also still wired. Can anybody who has been in there tell me where MB would commonly splice the heater cord to the outlet before I start removing panels? Carl
