Stupid seats.

[NeonGTI]

Okay, this did not happen on my '00 Passat, but the seat mechanism was different from my GTI...

When I adjust the seat back angle to the spot I like it always returns to a given lower angle within a day. I tend to have the seat closer to a 0 degree angle than the 15-20 degree 'natural' angle it comes to rest at. The fact that I have to adjust it every freakin day and find that perfect spot again and again is really pissing me off.

Anyone else get this?

i notice mine eventually lower down to the lowest setting height wise.. i'll crack them up a full 2 spots from lowest and after a few weeks its at the floor again..

I'm talking about the hand crank wheel on the side, but I do also notice the seat height drops too. I just attributed that to my big ole ass. Plus it's easy to adjust the seat height as the level clicks are finite but the seatback angle is infinite.

I get this same thing... I don't think I'm a very heavy guy, but apparently too heavy for these seats... Maybe its some kind of "safety" release or pressure release...
