So i just got my new GL450 2008
I have just one question. Does anyone know about the 3rd row seat access.
The right seat in the second row goes half way down but then the seat itself doesnt move up so i have to kind of climb over the seat and its really difficult. Does anyone know how to completely move over the seat for easy access of the third row seats.

In owners manual, go to index and find page for "Seats--Easy entry/exit feature for third row seats."

Only the passenger side folds in half then flips up. The driver side only folds down.

Once it folds in half, pull the same lever up a little more, it should make it flip all the way up and the passenger seat will automatically move forward. HTH
