Side bolsters
Hi, I have a question about the seat side bolsters, is it possible to adjust them?
I have the standard seats.
Correct me if I am wrong but I can feel them being pumped up when I have the car in S+ and take corners the opposite bolster seem to hold me in place.
i was wondering if it’s possible just to pump them up and keep them that way? I like when the seat holds me ...
thanks

Placebo can be a powerful drug . The standard seats don't have adjustable side bolsters. The performance seats do, though. With the performance seats, the driver seat side bolster on the seat cushion and the backrest can be adjusted and for the passenger seat, only the backrest side bolster can be adjusted.

as for the “placebo effect” i can definitely hear solenoids clicking and air being released after cornering... at first I was very confused what that noise was if it’s not side bolsters then what could make that noise?
just found it strange that I can’t find the place to adjust them?

What is back side bolster do you mean lumbar support? If so my standard seats have it on both sides passenger and driver...

Yes, the AMG Performance Seats are awesome. Very comfortable on longer trips as far as I'm concerned (I've done a 6 hour trip in them already), and they keep me planted when taking fast corners, and now with the 2019 they are available with both seat ventilation and heating. I see no reason for the standard seats, but I understand some people find the Performance seats uncomfortable.

Multicontour Seat Adjustment
Press the car button on the center console and go to Vehicle - Seat Settings - Dynamic Muticontour Seat
Aelect the seat of interest and set this setting to 0 (higher settings add more bolster push during turns)
Then go to Vehicle - Seat Settings - Lumbar, select the seat of interest, and adjust the bolsters to taste

I didn't think they ever came w/o it. The controls are on the side of the seat near the switches for the side bolsters. A bit lower down and round. I have mine fully retracted.
