Additional Thigh Support when Driving Down the Road
Strange but sometimes (randomly) when I am driving the dynamic seats kick in the thigh support all by themselves. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Any ideas why?

Yep, happens to me sometimes. Also, periodically, the DD seats stop working as well. If I turn the car off, back on, all is well.

Brav,

Sorry to sideway this thread, but your pano roof with the 19" wheel make your car looks so GOOD! I really want to put some 18" and 19" to my car but since it is family car and I park mine everywhere I just afraid some jelous guy will do some stupid thing like key the car...

Thanks!

Well, I doubt someone would decide against keying your car because your wheels were stock.. probably wouldnt change much. I say go for it. Can't always worry about the little things. Im very happy with my results, now I dont look like every other E out there. I rarely see silver E's with Pano, let alone any E with pano. I like the contrast.

Love for the owner is a possibility but the way I have been beating it lately it is unlikely

I have had an issue with the DD's going out all together also which is really strange.

lumbar supports
I got tired enough of the lumbar supports' capricious inflation to remove them. It's nice not being pushed when you don't want to be.
