seat too narrow

My passenger side seat seems too narrow when adjusting the side bolsters to their widest point. The adjustment does work and it will get even tighter and widen back out but compared to the drivers side it seems to narrow. For me it feels like I'm sitting on the side bolsters. My old man is visiting for Xmas and he's a big chap, bit worried he'll be really uncomfortable. Any thoughts?

maybe that will work to you advantage and it will loosen up for you

I found the seats in the AMG CL's pretty tight especially the passanger's side. Its probably tighter because it see's less use. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can really do.

I felt the same way about the driver seat on my car when I first got it. It took me a while to get used to since I had an X5 previously.
