    My wife would certainly like a heated steering wheel. Not available in the Audi A5. I did a lot of searching for aftermarket heated steering wheel covers. I can easily find them for sale. Can't find much of any reviews saying they are worth it or a waste. Maybe a sheepskin cover for the winter would be a better choice? Anyone use one? Heated steering wheel that is.

    Thanks

    Go for it! My Audi Allroad had the 'cold weather package' that included heated seats etc & on the drivers side that also heated the wheel.

    Few things nicer after a days snowboarding than heating the car while getting changed and then sinking into a toasty seat & wheel!

    Cheers,
    Ian

    A factory heated steering wheel is not available on the Audi A5. So I ponder the aftermarket heated steering wheel covers.

    Thanks

    I can't seem to edit my original post. It should be:

    Aftermarket heated steering wheel cover that is.

    Understood. (In fact my second Allroad didn't offer the option either; I was bummed!)

    We're supposedly having an El Niño soon, so snowboarding will (hopefully) be frequent - may have to find a 3rd party supplier like you!

    Cheers,
    Ian
