Passenger side heated (and ventilated) seat on 2016 RDX..

Looking to buy a 2016 so I ask current owners...

Does the passenger seatback also heat up / ventilate?

On my 2009 TSX, only the passenger bottom heats up.

My 2010 TSX was the same as yours, and wife grumbled about that. She says 2016 RDX passenger seatback also heats up. Not sure about ventilation; thought that was just the seat bottoms, but really have not tried it out yet.

Yes the passenger side seat back does heat up. Wife used it last night. As for the ventilated option I am not sure but can definitely test it out.

Thanks for the answer fellas! Glad to know Acura didn't cheap out for the seatbacks lol.

And yea, if you guys can test the ventilation that would be great.

As the east coast toasty to 76 degrees today, I have a chance to try it out. Look like seatback is not ventilated on both sides.

I tried it today, could definitely feel the cool air from the seat back.

Just to clarify, you felt the seat back cooled on which seat?

Both sides work the same. So if one works the other works too. It could be too weak that I didn't feel it cool on backseat then.

Here is the parts list of passenger seat, look at parts 13 and 14, both are blowers, for back and cushion.
