Drivers Seat Problem

I have just realized that my drivers seat will not adjust the seat cushion angle. I noticed this after having a loaner car for a few days. The 2017 C300 had a much softer drivers seat and I was able to change the angle of the seat. Is there any "seat reset" function or something that I can do without dropping the car off at the dealership?

I have the electronic seat and steering wheel with memory function. Everything works except tipping the font of bottom seat up/down on the door control (5 in the attached picture).

I just want to make sure this is supposed to work before getting the dealer involved.


Thanks,
Pete

Your profile lists a 2105 C300, but I think it's more likely you have a 2015. Anyway, the seat tilt function on my 2015 C300 works just fine. I'm not sure if that function is linked to option packages though.

Profile fixed... oops.

Thanks for the update. I'll make sure to mention the seat to the dealership the next time I bring it in.
