Settings questions
Hello all. I just purchased a 2005 E500 4matic last week. Got it for $36.5 with 18,000 miles CPO. Had a BMW 540i prior.
Question: I was able to set the convenience settings to move the seat back and the steering wheel up upon exit. This morning the seat did not move back to my driver's position but the steering did. Also, when exiting only the steering wheel moved up...the seat stayed in the driver's position and did not move back. Checked the settings again and actually reset everything back to factory and configured again. Any ideas of what could be wrong...either on my end or the car?
Thanks!

There is a safety switch that prevents the seat from moving back too far. This is regardless of your preference. If you moved it a couple/few inches forward it should move. The intent is to prevent an accidental interference with the backseat passenger's feet.
