Default Having problems with my seats....

Cannot seem to get the seats to stay in the position I want when I exit the car or get in. I've tried both ways of setting the memory with doing either: leaving the key in the ignition and setting the memory, taking the key out and setting the memory, or leaving the key in while the car is running and then setting the memory, and it never fails, the seats always move closer to the steering wheel with whatever I do.... I never had any problem with this before until now.... Please, what am I doing wrong...........

Have you gone into the options menu on the DIC and turned off the "easy entry/exit" feature?

Unfortunately this is a common problem - I'll probably dig into my seat this winter and figure it out, if you can wait that long. Every time I unlock my car the seat moves one way or the other, looking, it seems, for some random setting instead of the one I just 'set'.

Ah, the pleasures of owing the C5.

My seat wont go up or down, and im lucky if it goes back and forth. The lumbar supports deflate as soon as I let off the button, and only one of the side adjusters works. The mechanical seat back adjustment is the only reliable part of the seat! Its annoying but I've gotten over it. Good thing I'm not short or I'd have to either buy a new seat or sit on a pillow! Anyway... I too would check the seat memory option. Good luck!
