lumbar problems
hey guys i wanted to know if you guys have come across this:
my lower seat cushion seems to be deflating whenever i leave the car(i like the lower seat cushion to be fully inflated) when i get back to my car its almost completly deflated.
now my sidebolsters seem to be losing air.
i dont know what the hell is wrong but the passenger seat seams to be holding air much better and it seems it would be a big pain to bring it to a dealership because i have to prove its deflating but it deflates slowly (takes about an hour)

I had a similar problem, but it was the front part (the thigh support). Turned out to be a defective bladder and was covered under warranty. Mercedes of Long Beach did a fantastic job of repairing/replacing. Before taking it in, make sure you have the memory set to hold it where you want it. It could be that the key is not set to store the seat bladders at your preferred setting which would cause deflating to a different setting.

Had a similiar problem as well. My seats would not inflate and the pluse/dynamic would not work. According to the dealer a bladder had a slow leak which not only needed replacing, but fried the compressor from being over worked.
Took my dealer 3 tries to get it right
