Weird issue I've just noticed, the drivers side under seat heating isn't working. On the passenger side you can easily feel the breeze, but nothing on my side even on speed 8!
 
When you say "under seat" do you mean the seat heating (built in) or should there be vents under the seats that blow air (hot/cold) at your feet i guess? I know there are ones that should blow at your feet from the top of the foot wells. Gonna try find more in the manual :) I am now curious.
 
This is what my manual says, in the iSmart app. So you most likely mean the number 4, front footwell vents. Sounds like what @jamakr4 is saying might indeed be rhe cause.

And here I was thinking how great that would be, an air vent you could adjust to blow up under the seat, hot or cold, or onto the backs of the legs ....

There's a natural method for blowing warm air. ;)
 
Yeah, looks like I mis understood where they are however doesn't change that no air is coming out of it anyway 😔
Have you checked if the carpet has come loose or the mats are covering the outlet?

I assume you will have tried putting the vents on feet, setting to maximum power, also change to "Re-circ"/ Internal as this gives more force. Still nothing coming out?

There are flaps in the system, which could have gone wrong if no air comes out when doing above.

I’ve decided my next car will definitely have to have ventilated seats. Of course they seem to come with more and more cars after I bought my MG4, at least I get to cool it down before I have to drive it through the iSMART app.

Maybe the actor is blocked or broken - I think this falls under comfort features & electronics and therefore should be covert under the first 3 years of warranty.
