No. Dealerships are generally crap. I’m afraid. They sell cars. Once you have it it’s your problem. Has been my experience with Volvo. My local Ford Dealer was much better surprisingly. Anyway...
Parking climate fires up the aux heater if you have it to warm the car up. Or air con(when plugged in only) to cool the car in summer.
You want remote start which will turn on the heated seats, steering wheel and windscreen if you have those things. Which I found worked very well on my last car a T5. It will also start the engine but obvs that takes a fair while to warm up the car so I found that fairly useless.
There’s a thread on here about turning on Remote Start AND THEN switching on parking climate on cars without an aux heater. Never tried that myself though on my last car. Might be worth you looking up though.
Hope that helps.
