Getting poked..

Has anyone ever noticed when going over slight or large bumps that they are sometimes getting poked in the butt by something just underneath the seat bottom? It's not really super annoying, just noticeable whenever the car goes over a bump or a dip, I have a 2014 S550.

No. But I have on occasion felt one of the air bladders in my seats slightly inflate very lightly for no reason. Just a slight inflation that makes me go "hmm, why did it do that"? All I can think of is it might be some type of computer check going on randomly.

Did you try taking the bump at a slower speed?

Well it's not really just about the speed if it's on a road or highway and it's a quick bump I don't feel it, just when the suspension travels further and the I push into the seat more it seems like something is sticking out, I'm really nitpicking here though lol.

I noticed that on my 221 and my 222, I love how active the seats are.
