Hey, you! Thanks for your quick reply and the helpful information. It's nice to know that I'm not the only one with this problem. Do you remember what you paid for the repair? And have you had any other problems with the heating or anything else since the repair? Would like to be as prepared as possible. Thank you!

Sure, no problem remembering that. I paid €585 to replace the broken windshield heating element. That was a shock at first, but what can you do, especially in winter a working windshield heater is worth its weight in gold. And to pre-empt your question: No, since then the heating has been running like a charm, the functional limitations of the windshield heating have been a thing of the past since the workshop visit. There were no further problems with other parts either. I hope that eases your mind a little. It's best to tackle the issue right away before winter arrives. All the best, buddy!

Thank you very much for the detailed information! Although this large sum has already scared me, it's good to know what to expect. I'm glad to hear that everything has been running smoothly for you since the repair. I will take your advice to heart and get the problem addressed at a garage as soon as possible. It's worth getting this fixed before it gets really cold. I really appreciate your help, thanks again! Take care and have a safe trip dude!

Hi, I can understand your situation very well. I drive a 2017 Toyota Hilux and had similar symptoms a few months ago. My problem was a defective heating element in the windshield. In my experience, this is actually a serious matter, as the windshield heater is very important for visibility in winter. The heating element had to be replaced in the garage. The repair was successful, but it took a while for all the parts to arrive and for the car to be repaired. So, my advice is not to hesitate and get the problem fixed as soon as possible at a trustworthy garage. Hope this helps you!
