I can tell you with absolute certainty that the ambient temperature plays a huge role.
None of my heated steering wheels from BMW has ever worked consistently.
The only time they get really hot is when the ambient temperature is really cold.
Otherwise, you can't even tell that it is working.
I think the BMW philosophy is to take a really cold steering wheel that is so cold it's uncomfortable to touch and reverse that effect.
Beyond that, it's unpredictable.
Sometimes it really hot and other times it's room temperature.
