Default Haunted lumbar support
Every once in a while, I'll be in the middle of driving and the lumbar support will randomly stiffen...

Anyone else?

Maybe it's just excited by the drive?

Hey - I'm in Austin (well, Round Rock...) as well. North or South Austin Audi? Figure if it they have multiple customer comments at the same dealer, might carry more weight...

Lol - literally just had it happen as I was driving home! Happens every now and again, but it definitely happens

I believe it's all air bladders in the lumbar/massage, so they reinflate from time to time.

My seat back air bladders inflate after about 5 min of driving all on their own.

Happens to me all the time. The lumbar and side bolster support have a mind of their own and can randomly inflate/clench while driving. I've even had the massage function turn on for no reason a few times.

Sounds like harassment from a car seat!

Ditto for me. I brought it up to service and they said they couldn't reproduce it. Pretty weird behavior, but may be "normal" if others are seeing it.
