Help - Back/Neck Ache from Seats

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have had my X5 4.6is for 3months now, with the electric sports seats and I keep gettindg a really sore neck and shoulder area every time I drive it...even on short journeys. I have tried every setting I can think of on the seats and still can't get comfy.
Is there anything I can do to the seats to help this problem ??
Any help would be greatly appreciated...short of selling the car I don't know what else to do ?
Thanks,
Darren

I have noticed that i get a sore back after driving my Vert with sport seats along distance I have only had 1 month and every day i drive it i think i am more comfortable in it.

	Hi Pete, I had a Carbon Black M3 befor the X5.....found the M3 was great in the summer, but too scary in the winter !!! The X5 has done 27k miles, so I would have hoped the seat would have softened by now.. I was on another website ( BM3W) where I posted the same comments and it appears I'm not alone on this issue with the Sports Seats ! Do you know of any leather upholsterers in Aberdeen..I think I'll try one and see if they can do anything. Cheers, Darren
