Funnily enough the jets were the one thing that wasn't frozen on my van this morning. Getting in the doors was the problem though. All frozen solid and the locks too. My friend used to work for Nissan and said this time of year they were constantly replacing door handles where people had pulled them off trying to open frozen doors.

I usually have to climb in through the back of my van and kick the doors open from the inside.

Had the heaters on full all day today and was still cold driving. Usually it gets too hot pretty quickly. It has nothing fancy at all, no turbo, manual windows etc, but the one things that's always been great on it is the heat you get out of the engine fairly fast after start up.
