Default C5 driver seat

Anyone know a way to prevent the drivers seat from returning all the way back when I pull out the key? i would like it to stay put!

Called Easy Entry or Exit, set it through the DIC

When you depress the "OPTIONS" button on the side of the gauge cluster you will see an option for "EASY ENTRY/EXIT" display in the DIC. From there you can simply toggle it on or off.

Note that if you have the memory option in your car with the dual fob setup then this completely overrides the seat sliding back for both fobs (both drivers). The seat would then only change either by you physically moving the seat via the controls or by selecting either "1" or "2" on the memory option.

I too keep this feature deactivated on my C5.
