Lumbar Support on '21

Without the comfort seat package, is there any adjustment to lumbar support?

I looked in the owner's manual and it says to go to the menu option Vehicle - Seats and then you can choose Side Bolsters or Lumbar. Mine doesn't have any of this (G63). Is there anobody without the "Comfort Seats" option who can chime in? Should be the same for '19 and '20.

It seems like this should be a standard feature, but mine is missing it?

G63, G65
Do you have the active sport seats? I can't imagine there isn't a lumbar option on all of the possible seat configuration options, but maybe there isn't.

Yes there’s lumbar support and it’s pretty well adjustable but controlled via seat menu

Mine appears to be missing the seat menu. When I go to "Vehicle" there is no option for "Seats". Could it be an error in the software, or did they get rid of it for '21 on the G63?

I have a '22 G550. and have the same issue. Someone posted a video on YouTube that they removed the backpanel from the seats with an extra long screw driver. Inserted a blood pressure cuff at their lower back and are able to inflate it with the tube and the pump hanging out. I did the same. It changed my ride. It worked great.
