Infant Car Seat Help

Does anyone have any experience with infant car seats in their S6? I am looking at buying a 2013 CPO S6 but I am having problems finding an infant seat that will fit without having lots of movement.

I can get the rear of the base (on the latch side) to not move side to side, but no matter how tight I make it there is still give on the front side to side. Does anyone have a seat that fits with no movement? My little guy is about 10lbs, 21 inches and growing fast. Any help is appreciated!

See bullet 3. No movement at the belt path is the goal. You'll never get it so the front doesn't move at all.

Great choice of car seat: that is a Diono Radian R100 "Shadow", isn't it? That's the only one I could find that was high quality and didn't look out of place in the wife's A7.

To the original poster: yes, it can (and will) move a bit (except at the belt path) even when correctly installed. Be sure to use the top tether as well.

Fits like a charm. I think it's the prima viaggio 30-30. But it's the only one they make.

Good luck and congratulations.

Thanks guys. Did some more research and you guys were right about the fronts having a little bit of play. I put the deposit down on the CPO 2013 S6 today. I am trading in my 2011 S5 cab which is killing me (losing the convertible). But I need to get back into a 4 door while the baby is small. When he is big enough to crawl into his own seat, I am going back to a convertible.
