Anyone else suffering from super uncomfortable lumbar support?
I recently acquired a B8.5 Prestige S-Line A4; it came with 'sports' seats (the ones with extendable thigh support) and alcantara fabric.
I find that the lumbar support is extremely aggressive; even when fully deflated, the upper portion of the cushion pushes against my back and makes it quite uncomfortable for any drive over 10 minutes.
Has anyone else experienced this and can offer a remedy? I've read about people who removed the back cover of the seat and bent the lumbar tension brackets to ease it - but then some folks said it has not done much if at all while other say it has completely eliminated the problem. I've tried taking the cover off - it aint budging, period (the two bottom clips are the devil).
