Question regarding the Drive Dynamic seats

Hi guys, I just purchased an 07' S600, but I am unable to operate the drive dynamic seats. According to the VIN, the Mercedes dealer said that my car should be equipped with it.

I had previously leased a 2010 S550, which had that option and in that car, I would press the button (just right of the hazard button) and make all the adjustments (massage, drive dynamic etc). On my S600 however, when I press that same button, I am only able to adjust the lumbar and there's no other adjustment options. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Send a PM to member konigstiger along with your VIN number and ask him to get you the data card for your vehicle. This will show exactly how your vehicle was configured by the factory. You might want to also request the data for the leased S550, if you know the VIN number, so you can compare them.

It does look like your car has the dynamic seats and a ton of other options as well. I PM'ed you all your options since i wasn't sure if you wanted everyone to see.

Beautiful Car! That is strange. I think all 600s have that option. Another thing that caught my eye is you have AMG rims but the car does not have the AMG style side skirts and AMG style bumpers. As said on the section of the brochure for 2007 S-Class under 38/39 SPECIFICATIONS/EQUIPMENT, it says optional for 550, standard on 600. My 550 has only lumbar.

I found the detailed build sheet for your vehicle at http://carinfo.kiev.ua/cars/vin/mercedes

It appears your vehicle was one of the first and from the info below it does NOT have drive dynamic seats. Some of the first vehicles did not have all of the features that later became standard or available as options. Any Mercedes dealer should have been able to provide you with the information below:
