I Think I have the Cold Weather Package?

[yousharenow]

I'm pretty sure I have the CWP..I have heated seats, and even the large washer motor attached to my fluid tank with a hose that runs off.

But on my headlights, I have the blankout panels...

WTF?

[danewilson77]

Mmm.....you also have ski pass through?

[Crickett]

CWP is the heated seats, headlight washers, & trunk passthrough (ski bag); sounds like PO just didn't like the popout headlight washers (don't blame him).

That was my guess too.

[UdubBadger]

split rear seats w/ ski bag and heated seats and the headlamp washers is the CWP

[yousharenow]

Yessir, I do have the ski condom as well.

Well how about that, I have a cold weather package...I just dunno why they wouldn't of hooked up the headlamp nozzles.

What year is your car? Mines a 2003 and I don't even have the blank inserts under my headlights. I don't think the 03's had headlight washers even if you did have the cwp

I got a 4/2005 model. I had to replace my windshield washer pump a few weeks back, I ended up yanking out the wrong pump, the much larger one has a hose that runs off towards the headlamp assembly, and I defiantly could PUT the nozzles in, but its just a blank out panel there right now.

How cool, first day on here and already learned I have cwp =]

[johnrando]

Our cars aren't "special", but this place is. :)

[ryankokesh]

My '03 (non-zhp) has the CWP, with the headlight squirty things. They don't work, mind you, but they are there.

[HokieZHP]

Huh, yeah my car doesn't even have the fill panels where the washers would go if I had the cwp. Weird...

I have an 04 with CWP but not heated washer nozzles. Have ski bag, heated seats, and fold down seats too. I think you could order CWP with and without the headlight washers.

April build date '05. This is what I got. A CWP with everything. But no headlight washers.

[wsmeyer]

If you have the motor I'm sure you have the washers, the pump has probably just gone out.

[ryankokesh]

Maybe only xenons have washers with cwp? (dunno what you guys have though...)

I believe in north America you have to have headlight washer if you have xenons.

I have Xenon's and no washers...

could be something to that/ i had gone to a yard and was pulling a set of crushed up xenons for parts and it had the washers(never seen b4) i pulled out one of the nozzle thingys and it shot water straight into my pants lol.

[zj96sc]

how do you even activate the headlight washers? I've never used the things. wiper stalk forward?

[Crickett]

They (should) activate with the normal windshield wash (IIRC).

[yousharenow]

April build date '05. This is what I got. A CWP with everything. But no headlight washers.

And if you look on your tank, you should have two washer pumps as well. I'm a 4/05 build as well! :wave:

[kayger12]

They activate about once every five times you activate washer fluid, or the first time if you haven't used it in a while, iirc.

[danewilson77]

If the fogs are on...correct?

From the owners manual

When the vehicle's lighting system is
switched on, the headlamps will also be
cleaned at reasonable intervals.

[kayger12]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1vEwRRPPew&feature=related

I don't believe it has anything to do with the fogs. My fogs are never on.

It definitely does not activate every time you use the washer fluid. Only about 1/5 of the time.

[ryankokesh]

Maybe the fogs don't have to be on, but I think the lights at least have to be on.

[kayger12]

Don't think that's the case either. Mine have activated with the headlights off, I believe.

I'm going to do some digging and see if I can find something definitive on this.

OK. Maybe just headlights?

[kayger12]

The general consensus from the threads I can find seems to be once every five times when headlights on.

I guess because I always have my headlights on auto, they could have been on.

[yousharenow]

Holy shit! I didn't know that thing popped out...I think I have the nozzles then..I was looking for the old-school style nozzles that are always outside.

Headlight washers or not, heated seats are da shizz! :)

[MrMaico]

Yes they are. I wish mine got a little warmer though. I saw someone mention once that they had heard there may be something in the coding where you can adjust how hot they get. Anyone know?

[johnrando]

Hmmm, I haven't heard that, but I'll check around. Mine get too hot quickly on full, so when I do use them, it's on the lowest setting most of the time, then off. I can't imagine them not being hot enough, so maybe it is a coding setting or perhaps an issue w/the heater.

[Meric]

Yes i filled the washer tank. At night turned on the fog lights. It starts working.

Cars that don't have the fill panel do not have the package. The only cars that have the cutout are the ones with the washers. It's a different part number entirely for that headlight trim for washer-equipped and non-washer-equipped vehicles.

Nope. You can have Xenons without washers here.

editL whoops.

Thanks, ya I thought it maybe was something with the heater itself too but I tried the passenger side and it's the same way. They only get warm, even on high.

Hey derbo, that was me that sent you a VIN, not sure if we got them crossed up.

ghahah whoops. :X

MY bad. Build date is 11/04. Got confused with other build dates. CWP but only one washer pump.

[Smolck]

I don't think this is correct. I have everything the CWP offers EXCEPT the washers for the headlights. Another poster said he had the same on page 2.

my ski bag is pointless since the rear strut brace blocks anything from penetrating that hole!

That is correct sir, I had to cut out 2 squares in the carpeting of the trunk to allow it to pass through. But now those cut squares serve a purpose two fold, because I have access to the knobs on the tops of the coilovers to adjust stiffness now. Will take pics tomorrow.

I have Heated seats, and no CWP. I don't have headlight washers.

The 325i has CWP and the headlight washers, but they've never worked. Does it have to do with lighting or no? I've looked and there's no hoses going down, just a cap on the end of the pump...so that's one thing; but I never hear the motor.

The owners manual says "yes" to your lighting question. The above is copied and pasted from my manual.

from what I have seen online it is the battery cutoff feature when you get into an accident for safety reasons.

That's far less glamorous than I was hoping for.

Off topic, but damn is that a nice 135i you have! Any links to some pics?

[onepercent]

Heated mirrors are a part of the CWP too, right? I have them, it's a nice feature when I've parked outside overnight on a frosty morning.

[johnrando]

Good point, forgot about those. I think they turn on automatically if the defroster is on, correct?

[danewilson77]

No...I think they are always heated.....and that's why they rust. I would have to look at owners manual to be sure though.

[Crickett]

No, I'm a non-CWP with heated mirrors (unless my car's a freak).

[danewilson77]

I think all E46 mirrors are heated?

[az3579]

I think all E46 mirrors are heated?

This. Perhaps with the exception of the super cheap models in Europe (316i, 318i)...
All E46's in the states should have heated mirrors though. If my basic E30 had it, an E46 will definitely have it. :)
