Easy Entry on 2004 SL500

Does this feature really work in the 2004? I have gone under Settings/Vehicle/Convenience and checked that it is set on Steering Wheel, Col and Seat yet for some reason when you open the door or turn off the key, the wheel and seat do not move.

Am I doing something wrong or does it not work on the 2004 SL500?

Thanks

easy entry

On my 04 the seat has to be fairly forward for the feature to work. The steering wheel works always i think. You can program the feature separatly for both seat/wheel or just one of them i think.

You were right. I moved the seat up, reprogramed my memory position and now it works fine.
Thanks!
