Next time first scrape, then start the car and drive immediately. Saves diesel, less stinky exhaust gasses while idling and engine heats up faster if you drive instead of let it idle.
@weebl15 the problem is when first scrape the ice and then start and drive the inside of the windows freeze at once , when I start first and deice the windows I get a bite of heat enough that is window won't freeze that much. that's why......
@silverboyzzz wel till I get to the high half way the engine is fully warmed , but the first heat after 3 km riding you can see the water temper meter serveral times
@djverhulst oic, my father had a 2006 TDI Jetta and it took FOREVER to get heat. You had to use the heated seats and garage it. Pretty stupid of VW of not including a block heater in those models. At least they include it now
@silverboyzzz , well the car alway is outdoor and no block heater, the only thing i didn't do, put the airco on, and put the heater high hen driving, You see what I do,, maybe the thermocontroler of the cooling system is broke ??
@silverboyzzz It was a company car, the VW dealer said it was normal, it was so efficient on fuel there was very little "waste heat" (heat coming from the engine, you could idle it for 30 minutes and stick your hand on the engine and it was cold), it only warmed up by actually driving, but in a Canadian winter it takes a while. Nice car btw. Too bad we don't get more diesels in Canada, I would want one but I have a gasoline car.

How many minutes or km's did you have to drive to get the engine fully warmed up? How long does it take until you get heat inside the car?

what diesel engine is there 50,66,74,81kw?
I have one advice,dont turn on diesel for free idle, it is not good for engine because engine dont have a good lubrication.
