Captur cold start and PTC heater issue

Interesting... you mean the actual cabin heating? It seems fine, heat blows through eventually, though maybe takes a little longer than it used to. What exactly was up with yours?

Yes, cabin heating. Mine was the same, eventually got warm, but took longer. If it’s the PTC heater like you suspect, and the symptoms match, honestly, I’d advise a workshop visit. It could save you a lot of headaches. I believe the heater repair bill was around 350€ in my case. It may be the defective electric auxiliary heater.

Cheers for the insight! Sounds like I'm on the right track then. I'll get it booked in and hopefully, that'll sort it. I will check the blower motor too.

I had something similar with my Captur. Is the heating system itself working alright? I noticed the temperature control acting strangely before the cold start issues really kicked in.
