With the weather here getting cold now, I recently looked into the option of getting a engine block heater installed. when we were purchasing the EQ, the dealer indicated that the base LS model had so many options more than normal, nothing else was needed. We did not even think that a vehile sold in Manitoba would not come with a block heater, or at the least, be able to install one after the fact.
I found out today from the dealer that because of new technology, no block heater is needed. Very strange.
Also, GM quoted $615.00 to install a block heater and an aftermarket heater is about $500 installed. To move up to the LT modle to get a block heater is a lot to ask. Seems GM are really cutting corners. I am sure their will be more options out there soon. just hope that the cold weather does not adversly afect the vehicle.
Has anyone asked about a block heater and what have you found out?
