Adjusting Seat Height
« on: May 23, 2016, 06:50:26 pm »
Hey all.

I had my tracking checked on sunday and the guys changed the seat height some how.

I can't for the life of me work out how to lower it again.

I'm 6'6" so having it nice and low is handy.

There are some small buttons on the side which seem to do lumbar, but nothing to go up and down.

I'm probably going blind... :stupid:  Any ideas?

There's a lever you ratchet down or up to alter your height on RHS of the drivers seat.

Try up before trying up down again.

It's exactly that.  I just needed to be more heavy handed with it.

I don't know why i couldn't work that out, sometimes i wonder how i even manage to dress myself of a morning...;)
