Problem with W210 front seats (Please help)

[delad123]

My problem is that when I adjust my driver seat before departing. When I reach my destination. Get out of the car. When I get back in the seat has changed position and I have to readjust the back support,raise the bottom of the seat. Its like as if the seat sinks back and down. Has anyone come across this. My neighbour has the same problem with his merc.
Can anyone help a person with a bad back!!!!!

are the seats manual or electric? this may help someone with your problem. not a problem ive heard of before im afraid

Seats are manual. Right pain in the butt having to readjust them every time.

Are you saying that it remains static whilst you're stting on it and driving, but sat unused its moving on its own?
Doubtful.
More likely its you thats changing. When I come to drive home at the end of the day my mirror's always wrongly set. but its not the mirror moving during the day, its me that's a few mm shorter. Just age and nature. I often tweak the seat too as its not quite right, but its a memory setup so I know its 100% the way I left it.

Thanks JBerks. The seat clicks down when I sit in to it and the backrest has to be wound up to its original position. And before anyone says "lose weight" I'm 5'10 and 12.5 stone.

probably wear on the seat adjusters so they dont hold position as well as they should. i dont have this problem on my car i must admit. must be one of the few problems i dont have! LOL!!!
