What owners wrote
On the BMW model 325I yeras 2002 and 2003 the heated outside rearview mirrors are heated. They are not thermostatically controlled and therefore are always on. The problem arises in that if you get out of the car after it has been driven and unintentionally touch one fo the outside mirrors, you burn your fingers. This was observed when attempting to clean rearview mirrors after the car was on for some time.
