Default 2018 q5 sport seat swap wanted

looking for someone to trade seats. I have the sport seats (ventilated) from a 2018 q5 in rock gray. looking to trade for standard seat in same color. wife can't get into an out of the seat with the high bolsters and i can't drive more than 30minutes without having to take a break. less than 6k miles on them. upholstery companies in Houston won't touch them.

I agree about the seats. I waned vented seats as I live in Florida, but one short test drive and they came off my list. Why you can only get the ventilated seats in the sport version is beyond me.

I feel your pain. Literally experienced it with my original 2018 allroad with sport seats. They bothered me so much that after 6 months I had enough and traded for an allroad without them.

I tried a few different avenues to swap seats or buy new ones, but ultimately it made better sense to trade for a different car.

Also, I found the vented seats to be completely ineffective. Totally not worth the upgrade to the warm weather package, even after coding for faster fan speed.
