Seat Belt Positioner

Well the seat belt positioner in the S5 Cab crapped out at 7k miles. Looked through the menus and didn’t see a cure. Anyone else experience this?

Not yet...I'm at 5K. What is ALSO annoying is how sometimes the latch will slide back though the hole in the arm, forcing me to reach back and fish it through. Of course, then there's the passenger side latch banging/knocking around from wind buffeting.

Problem solved. As discussed earlier last year in a previous post the positioner won’t work if the seat is too high. My wife had driven the car last week and raised the seat.
Upon lowering the drivers seat today the positioner extended as designed. Absolutely no mention of this in the owners manual.

This happened to me. Afraid l would break the mechanism trying to pul it out so l had my wife push it through when l started the car so she could access the clip.
