        I normally have the drivers seat jacked up high, but after a week it is down again.
        Other owners too confirm this and my earlier complaint that the driver's seat is too hard and has a ridge, possibly where the seat belt (not done up) overide is located.
       regards from Dave

Hi Dave,

Sorry but I have my seat pretty much fully down....so can't help with that problem..

No ridge in my seat but again I have sheepskin seat covers which cushion things a bit..

Mine set mid way.

Never moved from that position.

Ridge - I have a feeling of a ridge but when I looked it was the seat padding covering the bits and bobs to do with the safety system - belts, head rest, seat air bag.
  • 1.4 Petrol Active I'm no expert, so please correct me if

You might be inadvertently activating the seat hight handel as you get in or out. Had this happen to me on a Merc A class.
