Weird problem - lumbar deflates on startup!

Hi guys,

I have a peculiar issue with an SL55 2003.
When I sit into the car, the lumbar support is fully inflated as I would have left it the previous day, then when I fire the ignition it deflates as if I've put my finger on the switch to do so. I can inflate it again and it will hold it fully until the next time is restart the car?!!

Any tips much appreciated!

Porsche guy who drives SL63 w/ perf pkg AND perf suspension
probibly have to have a dealer reprogram something, maybe even a bad controller in the seat would have to be replaced
