Car:Car Systems:Vehicle SettingsOne of the options shown)

Only gives you the raise steering wheel option on exit. Doesn't move the seat back. Alternatively you can program memory 2 to have the seat go back. But by the time you hold the button and wait for seat to go you could be out of the car.

I just ordered a vagcom cable and the seat back option will be something I will try to find.

In my above post the face was a semi-colon and the option says "Seats". As I said though this only allows the wheel to go up. This does lead me to believe the option is there to have the seat go back. I'll have my cable in a couple of days and a likely answer in a couple of weeks depending on how much I work and golf. Hmmm and the yard I have to work on..

I look forward to hearing if you find a way to get the seat to move back when the steering wheel goes up. I can't believe this is not standard. Porsche has it. I looked at a MB C450 AMG and the salesperson told me the wheel and seat both moved but after multiple attempts to make it work he found out only the steering wheel moves too.
This would help to save the sides of the bolsters from being rubbed getting in and out.

This has come up before in the C7 forums and so far, no one with VCDS has found an option or coding to enable it.

While I'm not sure I am right I see this as all the cars have the capability. The software includes all of the vehicles. So, all is possible? My '05 Japanese car had it so if I can't figure it out we can embarrass them into it?

Embarrass who? Audi? Good luck with that.

Just being facetious. I'll work on what some of us want. Although the drivers door is not huge and bringing the seat back may not add to better entry/exit issues. I hope so though. I have noticed with the window down the car is easier to get out of.

After a quick check after arrival of the cable, it is not as expected. I've made simple changes but menus are not the same as I've seen in the vagcom threads. I'm just going to go through each module to see what I can do. My current expectation is less than high short term.
