By winter, I mean at least 32F and below.
As I use an E46 with proper tires for cold weather, I can only report down to about 40oF. At that ambient temp, my 128i begins to provide warm air and the AUTO fan speed starts increasing after about 7/10 mile of driving at 20~25 mph speeds on neighborhood streets. (I normally begin driving within 20 seconds of starting the engine.)
