The manual comes with R32 shows a seat lumbar control on the side but obviously not on R32. Is the lumbar support adjustable on R32? I remember when I first sit in the car I feel the seat is pretty tight (in a good way) but now not as tight, maybe I am too used to it now.

View 5 RepliesI just picked up a 2011 Golf TDI a week ago and so far, I love it! I have about 600 miles on it now and I have noticed that the driver's side lumbar support is very stiff to turn compared to the passenger side. It is also making a creaking noise when it is adjusted and I can feel the seat compress slightly when I put pressure on it (say, when I shift gears or move positions) and it also makes noise when doing so.
Just wondering if this is a common problem, if there is an easy fix, or should the dealer take care of it. My thoughts right now are to take it right back to the dealer and let them deal with it.
I have Bluewater adjustable control arms, they have been on the car for about 22 months, and for the last few weeks they have been squeaking and creaking like a bastard, over any imperfection in the road.
We had the car up on the lift, and twisted the control arms, and it's definitely coming from there. I'm not the best mechanic in the world, pretty far from it, so is there a way to remedy this without replacing them? It sounds like I'm fornicating in a 1986 Caprice every time I hit a bump.
So my strut mounts are shot and I wanted to add adjustable rear control arms to eliminate tire wear. So thinking of going with Bilstein HD's with the stock springs. Oh and BTW want to keep stock ride height since it is my daily. The only option I would consider for springs would be the euro version of the stock springs.
View 4 RepliesI can move the lumbar support up or down, but I can't deflate it & it's quite the pain. First off, is it an air bladder or a cable? I could really care less if it ever works again as long as I could get it to relax/deflate, is there a cheap/easy way to do it?
View 5 RepliesI was messing with the drivers seat trying to fine tune it for comfort when I noticed the power lumbar rocker switch doesn't do anything. I looked at the glovebox manual for seat fuses and came up confused - everything else but what I was looking for...where is the lumbar fuse, or any seat fuses for that matter?

View 2 RepliesI just got new tires and had an alignment done. The values for the rear were off ... not too much ... but the tech said the rear suspension of the Prius isn't adjustable.
View 1 RepliesI have a '98 F150 front 60/40 seat going into a '77 shortbox F100. I've searched and found a lot of info on repairing a lumbar support but nobody seems to mention how to get the stupid off. I don't want to break anything but I can't see any screws or clips. Does it just pull off with force?
View 1 RepliesI have the CaryT V/ modded B 33" kit installed, and re-torqued after 200 miles. But since the install the EX pulls to the left and I have a clunking in the front end. The alignment shop said they have my alignment "dead nuts", and it must be my tires. Well I replaced my tires and wheels and I still have the pulling problem.
The clunking I believe is coming from the adjustable track bar, the torque wrench only goes to 250 ft/lbs so went to 250 and then tightened a little more. I have no way to measure the 396 ft/lbs in the specs.
The adjustable brake pedal on my excursion works fine, but the throttle doesn't and never did adjust. It just doesn't move at all. Why? Just a bad electric motor on the adjuster? Just curious if there is something common that fails before I delve into trouble shooting it more.
View 7 RepliesI been having this problem for a couple of day now the problem seem to be coming form the the low right part of the driver seat. Things that i have done :
1. lube all moving part of the seat with out removing the seat
2. bring the seat up and down and move all part.this seen to work but temp
It's getting worse - I've looked all over the place and can't find the source. None of the other seats do it.
View 24 RepliesI've notice this odd occurrence. After it rains, opening the door it drips water RIGHT on the seat. Also, driving in the rain if you crack the window the water drips right on your shoulder.
Just thought the design for drainage away from the windows is poor.
Over the past few months I've been hearing a popping sound from under my seat when I move a certain way and figured it was just the cold or another new sound well today I found out it was the seat frame mount and it finally snapped, pictures to follow.
Went to the dealer they quoted part/labor is gonna be around $1000 so I took it to a friends shop to see if he can weld it or if it's too far gone, should be getting it fixed this week, for now it's zip ties and really cautious driving.
I am figuring out a possibility how to lower the seat lower for those that are a bit taller?

View 10 RepliesMy seat belt latch is throwing the common error:
1 Fault Found:
00591 - Seat Belt Switch; Driver (E24)
32-00 - Resistance too High
I measured block 2 and found that wiggling the seat belt latch showed a 'On' vs 'Too High'. So I know it's that switch inside the latch. I don't want to buy a new latch. But since I always wear my seat belt I could just use a resistor to set it to 'ON' at all times.
I have found a few DIY, but thing seem to vary from R32 to Golf. In this .pdf, it is for the airbag defeat, but I am thinking this is a different issue all together.. [URL] .... This guide then shows different wires than the R32... [URL] .....
